<p>love setting an Easter table and inviting friends and family to gather around it. There&rsquo;s something so special about filling the table with delicious Easter recipes, fresh spring touches, and dishes made to share. And it&rsquo;s not always about serving a traditional ham&mdash;it&rsquo;s fun to go outside the box and try something new! Entertaining at Easter is one of my very favorite ways to celebrate the season.</p>

<p>While already a comforting dish, this version is made for added ease and modern diets. Leaving out the crust instantly makes it a low-carb meal that you can enjoy alongside low-carbs sides, such as cauliflower mash or rice.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This crustless chicken pot pie recipe is also incredibly quick to whip up for those busy midweek dinners &ndash; made in one pot on the stovetop and ready in just 20 minutes! We also use frozen stir-fry veggies for a colorful twist instead of the usual peas and carrots.</p>

<p>One of the best things about this chicken marbella recipe is how simple it is to make ahead, assemble, and cook! The chicken pieces marinate overnight, allowing the flavors to deeply penetrate and tenderize the meat, which means your prep work is done a full day in advance. When it&rsquo;s time to cook, simply arrange the chicken with remaining marinade in two baking pans, pour over the wine, and sprinkle with brown sugar for that signature caramelized glaze.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The secret to any delicious soup is the flavorful foundation created by saut&eacute;ing key ingredients, such as onion, garlic, and celery. From there, it&rsquo;s a matter of building upon this base by simmering the squash, beans, and kale in a smoky, herb-infused broth.</p>



<p>While I do love a vegetarian&nbsp;<a href="https://reluctantentertainer.com/creamy-butternut-squash-soup/">butternut squash soup</a>, the addition of chopped rotisserie chicken transforms this recipe into a protein-packed and complete meal that requires no extra sides, if you feel like a little time off!</p>

<p>The slow cooking process guarantees super tender and juicy chicken cutlets, infused in the flavors of the rich sauce. Simply set-it-and-forget-it, ready for you to serve over freshly boiled spaghetti as a standalone meal for dinner or with your favorite side dishes.&nbsp;</p>



<p>I love to get this going in the crock pot, for an easy weeknight meal. Even if it&rsquo;s more than two of us can eat, the leftovers are out of this world. It&rsquo;s delicious!</p>

<p>A great chicken salad is a weeknight lifesaver, and my repertoire has grown far beyond the&nbsp;<a href="https://reluctantentertainer.com/classic-chicken-salad-recipe/">Classic Chicken Salad Recipe</a>. I&rsquo;m always experimenting with new chicken salads and dressings.</p>



<p>This particular orange chicken salad is a current favorite, inspired by the vibrant tastes of Southeast Asia. It&rsquo;s a textural dream, combining crunchy cabbage, crisp cucumber, and tender chicken with juicy mandarin oranges and a generous handful of fresh herbs. The entire dish is brought together by an incredibly flavorful peanut-soy dressing that&rsquo;s so good, you&rsquo;ll want to put it on everything.</p>
