20 Best Chicken Recipes on Pinterest

Here’s exactly how some of the best food bloggers are keeping their followers well fed.

“Chicken” is one of the most searched keywords on Google, and a quick glance at Pinterest proves that chicken recipes get a lot of traction there. But, which are the best chicken recipes on Pinterest? I decided to research it and came up with this list. Using search tools, I narrowed down the timeframe from May 2015 and May 2016. So really this is a snapshot of that moment.

Best Chicken Recipes on Pinterest

As a former magazine editor-in-chief and indie author who is now running her own website and blog, I find it especially thrilling to see, in one place, this summary of the amazing talent of some of the best food bloggers. These cooks have risen to success through their own work and talent, cooking in their kitchens with joy and sharing their life stories. They have literally welcomed us into their homes and we have happily followed, allowing them to guide us into making better meal choices for ourselves and our families.

These bloggers are role models for anyone attempting to produce web content in any genre.

So here they are, starting with the recipe that has the most shares. Please note that these numbers change hourly as more people share the recipes! The numbers shown here are based on the day that I originally wrote this post (May 25, 2016).

The 20 Best Chicken Recipes on Pinterest for shares are:
