These savory chicken thighs with creamy, herby and lemony rice recipe is not only easy to follow but a fun one to cook at that. You’ll love throwing this one together and just how easily this will level up your weeknight cooking game!
Easy Cheesy Skillet Caprese Baked Gnocchi
The last thing we all need for these busy times is a recipe that’s laborious, no matter how delicious. From start to finish, this recipe took about 40 minutes and most of that time is just oven time where the gnocchi sizzles away to bubbly, golden brown, cheesy perfection.
Spicy Italian Pizza Pie
When a pizza craving hits, I usually want something classic. And classic pizza for me means something meaty, cheesy and spicy. Enter my spicy Italian pie with mozzarella, ricotta, sweet Italian sausage and spicy pickled peppers for a perfect pizza pie bite.
Gochujang Browned Butter Brussels Sprouts
If you’re a fan of tasty, non-boring veggies, than this recipe has your name written all over it. I’m already a huge fan of roasted, crispy brussels sprouts that practically taste like candy from natural caramelization alone. Too good!
Peach, Pesto, and Burrata Flatbread
I can’t think of a recipe to make to say “goodbye” to summer than these peach, pesto, and burrata flatbreads. We’re talking juicy peaches, savory pesto, creamy burrata, peppery arugula, a squeeze of lemon, and a drizzle of honey to make for the ultimate sweet/savory combination.
Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce
This recipe is ALL about the creamy, dreamy peanut sauce! This peanut sauce is so delectable, you could practically eat it with a spoon (not judging). But it’s also perfect for drizzling and/or dunking your chicken or even on a side of rice.
Chorizo Potato Tacos with Avocado Tomatillo Salsa
Arguably my favorite part of this recipe is the avocado tomatillo salsa. Just look at that gorgeous pop of green! It’s creamy, zesty and just slightly spicy and a perfect compliment to the savory and rich taco filling.
Summer Market Salad
Bright, fresh and full of texture, this summer market salad features lettuce, green beans, corn, feta, crushed pita chips and a za’tar, lemon vinaigrette. Summer in a bite!
Spicy Hawaiian Hot Dogs
In true Hawaiian food flavor profile fashion, it hits on sweet, savory and spicy notes for the all around perfect bite. Your summer just won’t be complete without adding these to your next BBQ spread!
Blistered Shishito Peppers with Dijon Mayo
A quick sauté in a hot pan with good olive oil, salt and pepper, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, then these babies are done and ready for snacking. I serve them up with my favorite, 3-ingredient sauce I’ve been whipping up for years. Mayo, Dijon and grated Parmesan create the perfect, creamy and tangy sauce for dipping.
Tortellini with Pesto, Peas and Crispy Prosciutto
I love the addition of peas in this creamy, herby and garlicky pasta for that burst of green color and nutrients, of course. But really, this recipe is all about the crispy prosciutto! An already perfectly tasty pesto pasta gets amped up to an 11 with crispy, salty, meat condiments on top.
Garlicky Roasted Tomatoes with Burrata
These jammy and garlicky tomatoes would be good alone or spread on crusty bread, but of course we’re talking indulgence here with this recipe. Freshly chopped basil, creamy, dreamy burrata and garlicky crostini turn these perfect tomatoes into a show-stopping dish.
White Pizza with Lemony Arugula
Perfect for entertaining and making an impressive pizza statement, these white pizzas feature a garlic and herb pizza crust, “good” olive oil, shredded mozzarella and creamy goat cheese for a pizza base that would honestly be perfect as is. But my favorite part of this pizza is the topping of a simple, lemon, olive oil and sea salt dressed arugula salad.
Pork Chile Verde
Big surprise, I use my Instant Pot to make this pork chile verde. The result is the most tender, juicy pork morsels you’ll ever taste, braised in a most flavorful, spicy verde sauce and done in just a fraction of the time in the pressure cooker.
Garlic Herb Roasted Fingerling Potatoes
These garlic herb roasted fingerling potatoes are the perfect, classic “meat and potatoes” side dish . Pair them with some grilled asparagus or other seasonal veggies, chicken, steak, pork or even fish and it’s a well-balanced meal.
Blackened Fish Tacos with Avocado Crema
One of my favorite Taco Tuesday recipes is my blackened fish tacos with avocado crema. Fish tacos may seem intimidating to make at home, but trust me when I say they are some of the easiest tacos to whip up and definitely some of the most delicious.
Zucchini Fries with Tzatziki
Zucchini fries may sound like the ultimate oxymoron but they are also one perfect food marriage. Crispy, crunchy, fresh and zesty, they’re easy to make and made even better with a cool, creamy and tangy tzatziki yogurt sauce.
Baked Cod with Garlicky Ritz Crumble
Perfectly tender fish, lemony, garlicky, herby and buttery flavor, this baked cod comes together in less than 30 minutes. Perfect for date night or entertaining, this recipe comes inspired from Ina Garten.
Creamy Cauliflower Soup
The soup is silky smooth, rich, creamy and yet light and airy at the same time. The addition of peppery bacon bits and crunchy green onion on top never hurt anyone either!
Bacon Kimchi Fried Rice
This recipe is perfect for weeknight cooking and/or late night cravings. Salty, spicy and chock full of texture and flavor, it’s one of my new go-to recipes for very good reason.
