This is one of the best chicken meals I’ve tasted! A complete meal in a single skillet with tender and juicy chicken & potatoes smothered in a mouthwatering garlic Parmesan spinach cream sauce.

INGREDIENTS

1 lb chicken thighs, bone-in, skin-on

2 tbsp butter

1 tsp paprika

2 tsp Italian seasoning (thyme, oregano, basil – combined)

4 garlic cloves, minced

2 c. baby red potatoes, washed and quartered

2 medium tomatoes, diced

1 c. (240ml) chicken stock

1 c. Parmesan cheese, grated

1 c. (240ml) half and a half (half cream mixed with half milk, for a lighter cream)

1 c. fresh spinach

Salt and pepper

1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

HOW TO MAKE ONE-PAN CHICKEN AND POTATOES WITH GARLIC PARMESAN SPINACH CREAM SAUCE

Step 1: Sprinkle the chicken thighs with 1 tsp Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

Step 2: In a large skillet or pot, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted, add the chicken thighs to the skillet/pot, skin-side down. Sear for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain the excess grease and transfer the chicken thighs to a plate when done. Set aside.

Step 3: In the now-empty skillet, melt the rest of the butter. Then, add the garlic, paprika, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and potatoes. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes. Then, pour in the tomato and chicken broth. Stir well and let everything simmer for about 4 to 5 minutes.

Step 4: To the skillet, add the half-and-half or cream, grated Parmesan cheese, spinach, and crushed chili pepper flakes. Stir to combine, then decrease the heat to a simmer. Allow everything to simmer for another 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 5: Place the chicken back in the skillet, skin-side up, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the chicken and potatoes are completely cooked. Adjust the salt and pepper according to taste.

Step 6: Remove from heat and serve the dish right away with extra red pepper flakes and Parmesan. Enjoy!

Seared chicken smothered in a very delightful creamy and buttery lemon garlic sauce. It’s the ultimate chicken dish that you can whip up easily in a breeze! For an easy and quick dinner, pair this dish up with some potatoes, rice, or pasta.

INGREDIENTS

2 chicken breasts

3 garlic cloves, minced

1/4 c. all-purpose flour, rice flour for a gluten-free option

2 tbsp unsalted butter, divided

1 shallot, chopped finely

2 tbsp olive oil, divided

1/2 lemon, juiced

1/2 c. chicken stock

1 tbsp lemon zest

1/3 c. heavy cream

1/2 tsp salt

parsley for garnish

1/4 tsp black pepper

How to make Creamy Lemon Garlic Chicken

Step 1: In half lengthwise, slice the chicken breast. Sprinkle each side with salt and pepper, then coat in flour.

Step 2: In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp of each oil and butter. Once the butter has melted, add the chicken to the skillet and sear for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F. To a plate, transfer the chicken.

Step 3: Add more oil to the now-empty pan, followed by the minced garlic and shallot. Cook until tender and aromatic. Next, add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and chicken stock. Deglaze the pan using a wooden spoon to release the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Let everything simmer for about 2 minutes.

Step 4: To the pan, pour in the heavy cream and add the chicken back. Cook for a few minutes more until heated through. Turn off the heat and add the rest of the butter, letting it melt into the hot sauce. Serve the creamy lemon, garlic chicken immediately, garnished with some chopped parsley. Enjoy!

NOTE:

If you prefer a lighter sauce, just use half-and-half or a milk and cornstarch mixture (1 1/2 tsp cornstarch with half cup milk).

If you are searching for another easy and quick meal, then you have to give this Cajun Shrimp Pasta a try. It’s the perfect weeknight dinner option for busy days. Savory and rich with just the right amount of heat. Serve this Cajun Shrimp Pasta with a healthy green salad on the side of your favorite steamed veggies such as broccoli or spinach for a simple and quick meal any time!

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp butter

8 oz. penne pasta

2 tbsp Cajun seasoning

1 c. heavy cream

1 lb. raw shrimp (deveined, cleaned, tail removed)

½ c. Parmesan cheese (finely grated from a block; I do not recommend pre-grated or not real authentic Parmesan won’t melt as nicely)

1 tbsp kosher salt

How to make Cajun Shrimp Pasta

Step 1: To a pot with water, add salt, and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Reserve about a half cup of the pasta water. Drain when done and set the pasta aside.

Step 2: In the meantime, cook the shrimp and sauce. In a bowl, toss the shrimp in Cajun seasoning and olive oil.

Step 3: Melt the butter in a hot large skillet over medium-high heat. In a single layer, add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until all sides are golden brown, flipping once. To a clean plate, transfer the cooked shrimp and adjust the heat to medium-low.

Step 4: To the now-empty pan, add the heavy cream and scrape the bottom of the pan to release any food stuck. Let the cream, simmer and adjust the heat to low. Then, add the Parmesan cheese and stir well to melt. Next, add the cooked pasta and shrimp. Toss to coat. Add pasta water, 1 tbsp at a time, to thin out the sauce or until you reached your preferred consistency.

Mouthwatering ground beef enchilada with perfectly seasoned ground beef, melty cheese, and a simple & impressive homemade enchilada sauce. This is a great weeknight dinner option that you can easily whip up in a breeze! And a freezer-friendly dish, too!

Ingredients

1 lb 93/7 lean ground beef

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp vegetable oil, plus additional for frying tortillas

1 jalapeno, minced and seeds removed

1/2 c. onion, finely diced

2 8-ounces cans of tomato sauce of good quality

1 c. beef broth, low sodium

2 tbsp chili powder

1 tbsp sugar

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp cumin

2 tbsp cilantro, chopped

16 ounces Colby-jack cheese, shredded

sour cream for serving

12 corn tortillas

1 tsp kosher salt

1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

How to make Ground Beef Enchilada

Step 1: Saute the onions and jalapeno in a large skillet over medium-low heat for about 2 to 3 minutes or until the onions begin to soften and turn translucent. Then, add the garlic, stir, and continue to cook for another minute. Before adding the ground beef, increase the heat. Cook the ground beef until browned. Pour in the beef broth & tomato sauce, and add the chili powder, sugar, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well and allow everything to simmer for about 10 minutes over low heat until the sauce has slightly reduced.

Step 2: In a smaller skillet with hot vegetable oil, lightly fry the corn tortillas until pliable. Remove from the skillet and set the tortillas aside with paper towels between each layer.

Step 3: Stir in 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro once the sauce has slightly reduced.

Step 4: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 400 degrees. Using nonstick cooking spray, grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.

Step 5: In the bottom of the prepared baking pan, spread a half cup of enchilada sauce mixture. Into each tortilla, evenly divide the meat mixture. Between the 12 enchiladas, divide 8 ounces of cheese. Roll the tortillas and place them in the baking dish, seam-side down. Over the rolled enchiladas, pour the rest of the enchilada sauce and sprinkle with the rest of the cheese on top.

Step 6: Using foil, tent the dish and place it in the preheated oven. Bake the enchiladas for about 20 to 30 minutes or until heated through and bubbly. Remove from the oven when done and sprinkle with extra fresh cilantro. Serve the ground beef enchilada immediately with a dollop of sour cream. Enjoy!

The Best Authentic Beef Enchiladas

by cherly June 25, 2022
written by cherly

Prep time: 30 mins | Cook time: 2 hrs | Total time: 2 hrs 30 mins | Yield: 4 TO 6 SERVINGS

These are the best beef enchiladas I’ve ever tasted! Cheesy, saucy with a mild kick.

Ingredients

1 tbsp vegetable oil

1¼ lbs (566.99 grams) boneless chuck steaks, trimmed of fat

3 cloves garlic, minced

3 tbsp chili powder

2 tsp ground coriander

2 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp granulated sugar

⅓ c. (5.33 grams) chopped fresh cilantro

2 yellow onions, finely chopped

15 oz. (425.24 grams) can tomato sauce

4 oz. (113.4 grams) Monterey Jack cheese, shredded, divided

½ c. (125 ml) water

4 oz. (113.4 grams) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded, divided

¼ c. (39.25 grams) chopped canned pickled jalapeños

12 6” corn tortillas

1 tsp salt

How to make The Best Authentic Beef Enchiladas

Step 1: Place the garlic, chili powder, cumin, coriander, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside.

Step 2: In a Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. In the meantime, season the meat with salt. Once the oil is shimmering, add the meat to the pot and cook on both sides for about 6 to 8 minutes. To a plate, transfer the meat and set it aside.

Step 3: Adjust the heat to medium and add the onions to the now-empty pot. Cook the onions for about 5 minutes or until golden brown. Then, add the garlic mixture, stir, and continue to cook for a minute more until aromatic. Pour in the tomato sauce and water. Bring everything to a boil and add the meat back to the pot with any accumulated juices. Put the lid on and adjust the heat to low. Let everything simmer for about 1½ hours until the meat is fall-apart-tender.

Step 4: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F.

Step 5: Over a medium bowl, strain the beef mixture. To another medium bowl, transfer the meat and any other solids. Then, break the beef into small chunks. Add half of the shredded cheeses, cilantro, and jalapenos. Mix well until everything is combined.

Step 6: In the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, spread 3/4 c of the sauce. Following the package directions, microwave the tortillas. Down the middle of each tortilla, spread about 1/3 c beef mixture. Tightly roll the tortilla up and lay them in the baking dish, seam-side down. Over the enchiladas, evenly pour the rest of the sauce, covering the ends. On top, sprinkle the rest of the cheese.

Step 7: Using foil, tent the baking dish and place it in the preheated oven. Bake the enchiladas for about 25 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes or until the cheese slightly browns.

Step 8: Serve immediately. If you have any leftovers, keep them in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Note:

Throw this together ahead until step 5, and keep the filling and sauce in separate containers. Store in the fridge for up to 2 days. When ready to bake, assemble, cover, and bake increasing the time by 5 minutes.

VEGETABLE QUICHE WITH HOMEMADE PIE CRUST

by cherly June 25, 2022
written by cherly

Prep Time: 60 mins | Cook Time: 30 mins | Total Time: 90 mins | Yield: 6 huge or 8 regular slices

Rich and creamy vegetable quiche with a homemade flaky and buttery crust filled with a simple yet delicious custard. This easy recipe is pretty versatile. You are welcome to add any vegetables you prefer. For the filling, feel free to add more spices such as thyme, oregano, and chili flakes for a little heat. As for the cheese, Gouda/ Gruyere is a great option. Or use all three (cheddar, Gouda, and Gruyere)!

INGREDIENTS

PIE CRUST:

1 tablespoon ice-cold water

1 1/4 c. cold regular flour

1/2 c. cold cubed regular salted butter

QUICHE FILLING:

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 eggs

1 c. mixed peppers: green, yellow, and red capsicum (cubed)

3/4 c. or 160 g. cream

1 c. mushrooms (sliced)

1/4 c. onions (finely chopped)

1/2 c. cheddar cheese (shredded)

HOW TO MAKE VEGETABLE QUICHE WITH HOMEMADE PIE CRUST

PIE CRUST:

Step 1: Add the flour and butter to a large mixing bowl. Using the tips of your fingers, gently rub the flour and butter shuffling with both of your hands. Bring the dough together. To make a soft circular dough, add 1 tbsp of ice-cold water.

Step 2: Using cling wrap, cover the dough and place it in the fridge for an hour.

QUICHE FILLING:

Step 3: Heat the oil in a griller/pan over medium heat. Then, add the onions and cook for about 2 minutes until light brown. Next, add the mushrooms along with peppers and continue to cook until nicely grilled and brown. To a bowl, transfer the vegetables and let them cool at room temperature.

Step 4: To make the custard, whisk 2 eggs in a large bowl. Add in the cream, grated/shredded cheddar, and mix again. Then, add the vegetables and season with salt and pepper. Mix well until everything is blended.

TO ASSEMBLE:

Step 5: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 180 degrees C.

Step 6: To a floured surface, transfer the pie/crust dough. Using a rolling pin, gently roll the dough.

Step 7: To an 8-inch pie dish, very carefully transfer the dough. It is all good if the dough breaks. Simply pinch and press the dough to give it a form in the pie dish. Using a fork, make insertions. Then, place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake the crust for about 10 minutes.

Step 8: To the kitchen counter, transfer the slightly baked crust. Onto the crust, pour the filling. Return to the oven and resume baking for another 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven when done and allow the quiche to sit for about 8 to 10 minutes on the kitchen counter before slicing.
