Whether you’re using the slow cooker, opting for crispy thighs, or going for an Itailan-American classic there’s definitely no shortage of ways to make it dinner. But this simple, saucy skillet never ceases to please the whole family.
Classic roast chicken is always a hit. Some of you love our simple method for roasting a chicken, while others are devotees of Ina Garten’s or Thomas Keller’s roast chicken.
