Everyone loves chicken, and with good reason. Chicken is inexpensive, easy to prepare, delicious, and so versatile. For autumn, make some heartier chicken recipes that use the produce of fall. With cooler weather, everyone's appetite increases. So use your crockpot, make chicken with heartier sauces, and pair pasta and potatoes with poultry. (How's that for alliteration?) Enjoy these quick and easy recipes.

1. Baked Honey Mustard Chicken

It's hard to believe this is a five ingredient recipe. The sauce that envelops the velvety chicken is so full of flavor and color. You can bake chicken thighs with this recipe too; just increase the cooking time to 42-47 minutes, or until an instant read thermometer registers 165 degrees F. Serve this beauty over hot cooked rice or pasta, or over polenta or mashed potatoes.0More »

2. Buffalo Chicken Meatloaf

This is my new favorite meatloaf recipe. There's a lot going on in this meatloaf, but it's so easy to make! I overcooked it the first time I made it; and it was still moist, creamy, and delicious. I credit all the veggies, the hot sauce, bread crumbs, and blue cheese! You'll love it. And be sure to make Buffalo Chicken Penne Bake with any leftovers.More »

5. Roasted Spiced Chicken

This bright tasting recipe is a real winner. Chicken is marinated with a dry rub made of cardamom, allspice, and cinnamon, then roasted on a bed of sliced onions. It's a simple recipe, but the result is complex. I love to serve this with a rice pilaf (Potato Basmati Rice Casserole would be perfect) and some roasted green beans or asparagus.More »

9. Butter Chicken

Despite its name, there's not a lot of butter in this recipe. The chicken becomes very buttery and tender since it's cooked in a sauce with lemon juice, curry powder, and ginger. This beautiful dish is one of my favorites.More »
