Recipes with Chicken egg
31 recipes
There are 31 recipes here that use Chicken egg, and every one of them is scored against what is actually in your fridge before it is shown. The quickest is Fried Egg with Chili Soy at 6 minutes; the longest, Homemade Chicken Nuggets, takes 60. 16 of them finish in twenty minutes or less, which is usually what matters on a weeknight.
A few of these need equipment beyond a stove and pan; the filter will hide those if you do not have it. 14 are vegetarian. 16 have no chili at all, so they work for children. 5 are properly spicy.
Chicken egg turns up most often alongside Spring onion, Cooked rice, Margarine and Chicken breast — if you have one or two of those as well, more of this list becomes cookable tonight rather than after a shopping trip. Add what you have to your fridge and the recipes reorder themselves around it, with anything missing collected into a shopping list.

No oven, and moister for it. Wrap the steamer lid in a cloth so condensation never drips onto the batter.
⏱ 45 min🍽 6 servingsMedium

⏱ 8 min🍽 1 servingsEasy

⏱ 15 min🍽 2 servingsEasy
