Totally a throw-together meal. And light! Because it’s almost spring and I’m feeeeeling it. If you don’t do enough with salmon and want to start doing more with salmon, consider this your gateway. It’s wildly flavorful and embarrassingly easy to get on the table. (and quick, holy moly) Let us peepeth! The spice paste is […]

Sheet Pan Chicken and Zucchini with Shallot Rice
Two sheet pan dinners coming your way this week! Starting with this one. Which is probably obvious. Never mind. This type of dinner is ideal for weeknights because you have the rice cooker working for you (or stovetop, if that’s your thing), and the oven working for you. The only real legwork up front is […]
Italian Chicken with Shallot Rice and Zucchini
I will not say winner winner chicken dinner. I will not say winner winner chicken dinner. I will not say winnneresrnenenencchiiiiiicdinnddder. Not doing it. HOWEVER. I’d love for you to try this. Let me ask you something. Because this is a . . . we’ll call it a conversation, that Aaron and I have often. […]
Creamy Skillet Chicken and Mushrooms
Luscious alert! You’ve been warned. It’s still chilly, so let’s make something classic and warm and homey before we can’t anymore. Not that we’ll not be able to make this in June. We may not want to, is all I’m saying. You may want to. Don’t let me stop you! I’m just meaning that this […]
Chicken and Mushroom Enchilada Rice Casserole
A lot of words, I know. I know! But completely necessary, because there is so much happening in this thing. So much comfort. So much nostalgia. So much wintery warmth, your head will fall off. First of all, it’s a casserole, so hi yes, all will be satisfied. Another thing about this is that you […]
Seared Salmon and Zucchini over Shallot Rice with an Herb Drizzle
It’s all the good things, really. Have I told you about my favorite way to make rice? I WANT to say I have. I know I’ve shown you the method during a Food Network video at one point, but I can’t remember if I have in here. WAIT, I have! Well, I’m doing it again. […]
Cilantro Turkey Meatballs with Rice and Lime
WARNING: this dinner contains cilantro. A lot of cilantro. AKA: the taste of dish soap to a bunch of you weirdos. (jk i love you) Proceed if you dare. Or just sub parsley because that’s super easy and this is amazingly tasty. With the cilantro, that is. Never mind. You know how much I heart […]
Seared Shrimp and Pineapple with Sticky Coconut Rice
S U P E R simple dinner alert. I mean, alert! I feel like that needed an exclamation point. Either that or something’s in this coffee. This is 100% one of those barely-do-a-thing meals. Which is kind of the key to life right now. I’m all for cooking from scratch, layered, project recipes, sure. You’re […]
Seared Chicken with Seasoned Rice in a Lemon Parsley Sauce
Yeah so this is about to change your weeknights. Like when it’s time to eat. You knew that. Right. Not only are we looking at seared chicken thighs (for the love go with thighs) bathed in a lemony parsley sauce (think piccata, sans capers), but what we’re about to do to the rice will have […]
Skillet Chicken with Rice, Zucchini and Corn
Another summer recipe! Because . . . well, July. It’s a two parter (you know how I like a good two parter), but still has that lazy, thrown-together feel of summer. Because a) we’ll marinate chicken thighs (thighs are life and this is part one), and then b) we’ll sear it in a skillet with […]
