A generous spoonful of this delicious relish is all you need to finish perking up spiced chicken thighs. Briny olives have the satisfying, full flavor that fat provides—and one or two bites define the perfect appetizer or condiment.

Slightly spicy, tender chicken flavored with mango, peach, plum or cranberry chutney. This dish is delicious served with minted couscous.
Calypso Chicken Salad
Just Bare Just 5 Cooking Challenge finalist Kadija B. of Deerfield Beach, FL. paired luscious pineapple with the creaminess of rich avocado in this refreshing Caribbean-inspired dish.
Chicken & Mini Pasta Soup
Make this thick, hearty and nutritious chicken soup to fill up your kids’ thermoses for school lunch. In the fall you can use all sorts of autumn vegetables—try butternut squash, parsnips, or rutabaga for the carrots and celery—or your own canned tomatoes from a garden harvest.
Garlic-Mint Pesto Chicken
This Just 5 Challenge finalist recipe is the creation of Patricia F. of Langley WA. A variation of traditional basil pesto, this recipe uses fresh mint leaves instead for a fresh and full summery flavor.
Pesto Chicken Spirals
These basil-infused chicken slices are the perfect outdoor snack! Take the plunge and dip them into the creamy pesto and lemon-spiked mayo.
Spicy Blackened Chicken Sandwiches
Aioli is just a garlic-infused mayonnaise—look for a blend that is spiked with chiles or horseradish, like wasabi. It lends a savory-spicy accent to a crisp slaw that complements the blackened grilled chicken. Handle the Heat created this list from an ingredient list submitted by Antonio T., who won a grand prize in the Just Bare® Chicken +5 Ingredient Challenge.
Grilled Chicken Bruschetta with Tomato Tapenade
In Tuscany, bruschetta is really just deliciously toasted bread that is rubbed with fresh garlic and topped with super-ripe tomatoes—at their harvest peak. The word “bruschetta” means toasted (or literally burned). By slicing the chicken breasts in half horizontally, the grill time is cut in half.
Coconut Jerk Chicken with Mango-Tomatillo Salsa
This take on coconut-coated chicken is a fusion of Latin-American flavors. It brings back memories of a mid-winter trip to Jamaica, where the melding of sweet and incendiary spices flavor many dishes. Tropical fruit sauces help temper the heat—vary the fruits you toss together for salsas. The key is to dice or blend the fruits together, with a squeeze of fresh lime and shower of cilantro leaves.
Chipotle Mango Chicken Pizza
Blending up sweet mango with spicy chipotle chiles creates a surprising pizza sauce with a deliciously slow burn. Look for prepared pizza dough in the refrigerator case or substitute frozen bread dough for a chewy crust. Handle the Heat created this recipe from an ingredient list submitted by Pamela S., who won a grand prize in the Just Bare Chicken +5 Ingredient Challenge.
