Five simple recipes for a stay-in dinner
Begin with sheet-pan honey-lime chicken and green beans for a bold, bright dinner that roasts quickly. Toss green beans and red onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast alongside chicken coated in lime juice, garlic, and a light drizzle of honey. Add one-skillet chicken with mushrooms and quick lemon pan sauce when you want a cozy plate with minimal cleanup. Sauté mushrooms, sear chicken cutlets, deglaze with broth and lemon juice, and fold in spinach at the end for balance. Cook sheet-pan Dijon salmon with green beans when you want a simple dinner that still feels polished. Brush salmon with Dijon, garlic, and lemon zest, then roast until flaky and finish with lemon juice and parsley. Make sheet-pan turkey meatballs with broccoli and marinara for a classic dinner that feels like a treat without extra work. Roast turkey meatballs with broccoli, spoon warm marinara on top, and finish with basil for a fresh bite. Close with one-pot pesto white bean pasta with spinach by simmering pasta in broth, stirring in white beans, folding in spinach, and finishing with pesto off the heat.
