If you want to save time while making this Paleo chicken breast recipe, you can look for riced butternut squash already packaged at the grocery store.
Paleo Chicken and Avocado Lettuce Wraps
Transform an ordinary wrap into a Paleo chicken recipe with just a few sneaky swaps. Instead of adding a dollop of sour cream, spoon on homemade Paleo cashew cream, and support the chicken, avocado, and grape tomato filling with a romaine lettuce leaf instead of a tortilla.
Chicken and Asparagus Skillet Supper
The summer squash and asparagus for this Paleo recipe are so easy to make that you may end up serving them regularly as a side dish for other entrées. Microwaving the veggies for just a few minutes gets the veggies crisp-tender (even quicker than skillet-cooking). The snappy veggies are the perfect pairing for succulent Paleo chicken thighs with bacon.
Smoky Paprika Garlic Chicken
This Paleo chicken breast recipe gets a lot of flavor from a simple marinade made with smoked paprika, fresh mint leaves, and plenty of garlic. Brushing on the leftover marinade as it cooks ensures it stays nice and juicy on the grill. If you've got space on the grill, toss a few veggies alongside the chicken for a great side dish.
Paleo Chicken Meatball Noodle Bowl
When you're craving Asian takeout, turn to this tasty Paleo ground chicken recipe. Though noodle bowls and popular Asian sauces aren't usually included in Paleo guidelines, this recipe uses parsnip noodles and fresh ingredients like ginger, cilantro, and Fresno chile peppers instead of traditional soy sauce and other off-limits ingredients. We gave this Paleo noodle bowl plenty of Asian flavor without bending any rules.
Pressure Cooker Indian-Spiced Chicken
This recipe proves that you don't need to spend hours on a dish to develop bold flavors. The Paleo Instant Pot chicken recipe pressure-cooks in just 5 minutes, but each bite is brimming with the flavors of curry powder, cayenne pepper, and light coconut milk. Make sure you include a side of cauliflower rice to help soak up all the extra sauce—you won't want to waste a drop.
Chicken with Summer Squash
Do you have 25 minutes to spare? Then you've got enough time to make this Paleo chicken recipe with a side of summer squash and grape tomatoes.
