The National Chicken Council in Washington, D.C., has developed new chicken recipes bursting with the flavor of each season. In addition to a variety of chicken parts, the recipes all feature herbs or vegetables whose appearance at the grocery store and farmers’ markets signals the arrival of the season. 

Springtime’s fresh tastes

Chicken works well with delicate flavors like tarragon and mint, and is a perfect complement to spring’s first fruits and vegetables: leeks, fennel, asparagus, strawberries.

Chicken Tenders Over Pasta with Creamy Slow-Roasted Tomato Sage Sauce features the versatile tender – the small strip of white meat cut from the side of each chicken breast. The sautéed chicken is served over spaghetti noodles tossed with a slow-roasted tomato sauce made with chunks of prosciutto, peas, sage, cream and roasted tomatoes. The dish is topped with Parmesan cheese and parsley before serving.
