Chicken Dish

I'd add a few more things to cocktail hour if possible. The last wedding I was at only had two things and it wasn't all that exciting.

Maybe chicken marsala or chicken piccata. I love both of those. Is there a way to have any seafood or meat?

Chicken parm

Chicken piccata is my favorite. Chicken parm would also make me happy.

I would go with a non-tomato chicken - if someone doesn't like tomatoes, they're really limited if you go wth a tomato based chicken.

It's hard though because I think chicken Marsala is pretty stigmatizing with the mushrooms, and I'm not sure what would go with red sauce, but not be red sauce based. Maybe a stuffed chicken?

@Mrs Sullivan - We were thinking of adding a anti pasta platter to cocktail hour, or fruit tray. As for adding a red meat, I was worried some guests won't enjoy it. Chicken always seems like a safe option and seafood was out of our budget unfortunately.

@Pumpkin Chicken parm is always good!!

Everyone will eat Picatta, but it's kinda dull....same with Marsala. I'd personally do Saltimbocca (with prosciutto, sage and a lemon butter) or stuffed with something like spinach mousse or sundried tomato/olive mousse.

I'd add a beef or a seafood and cut down on the pasta choices.

We had marsala and it went over well! It's one of those chicken dishes that everyone, usually, loves.

I like chicken without any sort of cheese as I am mildly lactose intolerant, but I know we are a semi-rare breed

Yeah. More apps.

Any apps suggestions other than anti pasta?

Thanks for all the feedback, it's much appreciated.

Anything Celia recommended. Especially that prosciutto/sage/lemon butter dish- that sounds awesome.

ETA: And for apps I would do some bruschetta or something, you could do a couple varieties.

Antipasto sounds like a good addition to cocktail hour. Maybe just a plain herb roasted chicken that can go with any pasta? I am a fan of chicken parm myself.

I love chicken parm and chicken marsala. But I can def get behind the sage/lemon/prosciutto suggestion. That sounds unique and delicious.

Another vote for chicken picatta

I don't have an opinion on the chicken, as I'm vegetarian, but depending on your guests, it might be appreciated to have another vegetable or a vegetarian entree that isn't pasta.

This is why I love WW so much!

I'm thinking chicken piccata will be the one and definitely going to add another anti pasta to our apps.

CHICKEN PARMESAN

@Maui I am loving the excitement over chicken parm hahah

Chicken Marsala!

Another vote for chicken piccata.

Stuffed mushrooms might be a good app that goes with food theme.
