Easy and delicious meals on the table in 30 minutes

Marry Me Chicken is a creamy, flavorful dish that’s so irresistible, it’s rumored to inspire proposals! Tender, juicy chicken breasts are seared to golden perfection, then simmered in a rich, velvety sauce made with heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. A hint of fresh herbs like thyme or basil adds an aromatic touch, making every bite a perfect balance of savory, tangy, and creamy. Serve it over pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice for a meal that’s guaranteed to impress—whether you’re cooking for a date night or a cozy family dinner!

Chicken Broccoli Lasagna Skillet is a one pan dinner using chicken breast, frozen broccoli, heavy cream, chicken broth, and broken lasagna noodles. I always have a couple of noodles leftover when making lasagna and I never know what to do with them. Until now!

If you don't have extra lasagna noodles, you can use any random noodles you have on hand.
