Lemon chicken is a flavorful dish found in various global cuisines, typically made with chicken that's marinated or cooked with lemon juice, zest, and often garlic, herbs, and a bit of sweetness or butter for balance. The lemon not only gives it a bright, tangy flavor but also tenderizes the chicken.

Fun fact: Lemon juice doesn't just add flavor, it's also a natural meat tenderizer

Chicken Parmesan (also called Chicken Parmigiana) is a beloved Italian-American dish made by breading and frying a chicken cutlet, then topping it with marinara sauce and melted cheese, typically mozzarella and Parmesan—and baking it until bubbly and golden.

Fun fact: Chicken Parmesan became so popular in the U.S. that in 1992, a frozen food company called Banquet launched one of the first microwaveable chicken parm dinners.

Chicken Teriyaki is a Japanese dish made by grilling or pan-frying chicken that has been marinated or glazed in a teriyaki sauce. The sauce is typically made from soy sauce, sake (or mirin), sugar, and ginger, giving it a perfect balance of salty, sweet, and savory flavors.

Fun fact: The teriyaki chicken burger was even invented in Hawaii in the 1950s.

Chicken tenders are boneless, skinless pieces of chicken that come from the tenderloin part of the chicken breast, which is naturally the most tender section of the bird. These pieces are typically breaded or battered and then deep-fried, although they can also be baked or grilled for a healthier version.

Fun fact: The chicken tender is a favorite of both kids and adults, and it’s so beloved that National Chicken Tender Day is celebrated every year on July 27th in the U.S.
