Weeknight Meals

Shrimp Stir-Fry With Garlic Chives and Chiles

This quick-cooking dish that will disappear as fast as it comes together.

Smoky Lamb With Spiced Yogurt

Serve it with warm pita, rice, or chips for an under-30-minute dinner.

Maple-Mustard Sheet-Pan Salmon

Roasted radishes for the win.

Thai-Style Fish Curry

Low effort, big flavor, and ready in under an hour.

Broccoli Confetti Rice

A veg-forward main or gets-along-with-everyone side.

Harissa Scampi

Harissa adds a layer of nuance to this twist on Italian American favorite, shrimp scampi, offering added body and warmth from spices such as caraway and cumin.

Hot Honey–Glazed Salmon

This broiled hot honey salmon recipe results in sweet, spicy, glossy fish coated in a homemade hot honey glaze for an easy weeknight dinner or make-ahead lunch.

Green Chile Puttanesca Pork Chops

The heat of pickled chiles brings a welcome zing that integrates well with the salty elements of puttanesca and acts like a counterweight to rich pork chops.

Speedy Chicken Stroganoff

This easy, one-skillet chicken stroganoff features tender chicken breasts, savory mushrooms, and a creamy Dijon-crème fraîche sauce—perfect for weeknights.

Pasta Carbonara With Pancetta

This classic carbonara traps crispy pancetta and all that silky sauce in big tubes of rigatoni.

Smothered Italian Sausage

This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.

Steakhouse Salad With Black Pepper Dressing

Crisp winter greens and tender slices of steak get the restaurant treatment with a punchy peppercorn dressing, crisp bacon bits, chives, and blue cheese.

Butternut Squash Orzo With Fried Sage

Canned butternut squash purée (find it by the canned pumpkin!) makes this cozy, cold-weather recipe come together in a snap.

Cod With Lemon Butter Sauce

A flurry of fresh tarragon makes this speedy weeknight dish of seared cod and luscious, sun-colored pan sauce feel restaurant worthy.

One-Pot Chicken Thighs With Cilantro Rice and Beans

This one-pot dinner cooks chicken thighs directly on top of a bed of flavorful cilantro rice studded with black beans for a complete dinner.

Rosemary and Dried Cherry Pork Chops

Rehydrating dried cherries in hot water turns them plump and juicy—exactly what you want scattered throughout a rosemary-scented pan sauce for pork chops.

Brussels Sprout Pasta

This brussels sprout pasta recipe taps nutty brown butter, crunchy pecans, and hot Italian sausage to create an easy dinner bursting with fall flavors.

Sweet-and-Sour Cranberry Chicken Stir-Fry

Canned cranberry jelly transforms into a glossy stir-fry sauce that coats chicken and green beans for a dish reminiscent of your favorite take-out.

Weeknight Pumpkin Chili

A can of pumpkin purée adds richness, body, and an autumnal hue to this speedy chili, letting the flavors of the spices, aromatics, and ground beef shine.

Gnocchi Piccata

All the flavors of chicken piccata, only instead of meat, the dish is built upon plump potato gnocchi (the shelf-stable kind) in this no-boil one-pan recipe.
