Fast & Easy Dinner: Lemon Spaghetti

Pasta is one of my favorite weeknight dinners.

Pasta is one of my favorite weeknight dinners. Most sauces, whether it be something classic like carbonara or different such as sun-dried tomato cream, come together in no time at all. The latest recipe to be added to my pasta rotation? This vegetarian-friendly lemon spaghetti. The just-cooked pasta is tossed with a creamy lemon-garlic sauce, tons of grated parmesan cheese, and a heavy sprinkling of fresh herbs. On its own, it's a delightfully light dinner; however, it would make an excellent side to grilled chicken or shrimp. I prefer to enjoy it with a chilled glass of sparkling Rosé. Here's the uncomplicated technique!

Fast & Easy Dinner: Pan-Fried Chicken With Ragout

Have you already enjoyed these fast chicken dinners?

Have you already enjoyed these fast chicken dinners? If you have, here is your next one to try! It's a simple pan-fried chicken topped with a bounty of bell peppers and tomatoes that will surely leave everyone at your table satisfied. The tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions are quickly roasted in the oven before being mixed with a thick garlic paste. The chicken is lightly floured for a crisp texture and juicy flavor. For an even shorter cook time, I used chicken strips. Once the chicken is cooked, it's topped with the warm ragout and fried capers, for extra salty goodness. Served with brown rice or a side salad, it makes a great meal. Say goodbye to boring chicken dinners and get this recipe.
