Ground Chicken Four Ways

We LOVE ground chicken! it's easy, it's lean, and it's so versatile. I use a 90% lean ground chicken I get from Costco here in Japan. For these four recipes I divided the chicken into four one pound segments. The bag I get is a massive four pound bag!!!

Here are four of my most recent favorites.

1. Greek Chicken Bowl

2. Unstuffed Pepper Bowl

3. Honey Sriracha Chicken

4. Firecracker Chicken Bowl

Let's start with the most simple. The Greek Chicken Bowl was a piece of cake.
