I have a confession…I suck at meal planning. I’ve tried it on multiple occasions and I never stick to it. NEVER. Something always comes up or I just don’t feel like eating what’s on the menu. Instead, I like to have a stash of quick and easy ‘go-to’ recipes that I can make with my regular pantry ingredients. So if you’re struggling with meal planning too and need simple recipes, here are ten 6-ingredient Chicken Dinner Recipe Ideas to add to your regular dinnertime menu rotation.
