Weeknight saviors, weekend projects, and a few chaotic cravings in between, all lovingly tested in my NYC kitchen
Crispy Chicken Cutlets with Arugula Salad & Mustardy New Potatoes
This 30-minute crispy chicken cutlet dinner comes together in a snap and is perfect for spring and summer. Fresh, peppery arugula tops flavorful crispy chicken, and mustardy, herby, warm potatoes are served alongside for a complete weeknight dinner for two.
Banh Mi Pork Tacos with Quick-Pickled Veggies & Sriracha-Lime Mayo
These 20-minute, one-pan banh mi-inspired pork tacos might just be the easiest and most delicious thing you’ll make all week. The key to crispy, caramelized pork is to allow it to sit undisturbed, both before and after adding the sauce. The sugars in the sauce caramelize to form sticky, lacy edges that are seriously delicious.
Japanese BBQ Chicken Bowls
Japanese BBQ sauce takes center stage in this fast, flavor-packed dinner, lacquering bite-size chicken thighs in sticky umami richness. Crispy cucumbers, toasty sesame carrots, and fluffy jasmine rice round this bowl out into a complete and satisfying weeknight meal. Marinate the chicken if you have time, but even without, this 40-minute recipe delivers big flavor with minimal fuss.
