Your Next Weeknight Meal Plan (And Weekend Cooking Project!)

What to Cook Next Week No Images? Click here   After a busy day, the last thing you want to do is spend hours in the kitchen pulling dinner together. Luckily, we have a wealth of delicious weeknight meals that will have you in and out of the kitchen in one hour or less. Meet our weekly dinner plan: Five easy dinners for five busy weeknights, all sent in advance so you can get your shopping done ahead of time. Cook along with us!   Your Week Ahead MONDAY Broiled Strip Steak With Mushrooms and Chive Sour Cream The broiler is a powerful kitchen tool, one that can whip up delicious dinners quickly and easily, such as this warm one-pan mushroom and cabbage salad with sliced strip steak. That's an elegant Monday meal.   TUESDAY Stir-Fried Sliced Pork With Yellow Chives Put down the takeout menu and put your wok to work instead. This super-juicy pork stir fry with aromatic chives will convert you to DIY weeknight Chinese for good. WEDNESDAY Pressure Cooker Thai Green Chicken Curry With Eggplant and Kabocha Squash This fragrant, hearty Thai-style chicken curry tastes like it took hours to prepare, but it cooks in a pressure cooker in just 20 minutes. THURSDAY Broiled Whole Porgy With Blistered Shishito and Tomato By using the broiler, whole porgy grows blistered and crispy on the outside while its delicate white flesh stays tender and sweet. We keep prep work to a minimum by using whole cherry tomatoes and shishito peppers—no fancy knife skills required. FRIDAY Maitre d'Hotel Butter Burger With Garlic Confit and Seared Romaine This burger is topped with a steak classic: maitre d'hotel butter, a compound butter flavored with parsley, lemon, and garlic. As it melts onto the hot patty, it bastes the whole thing in a rich, flavorful sauce, making a hyper-indulgent burger you deserve after a long week.     Your Weekend Project Ah, the weekend. Visions of time-consuming kitchen endeavors dancing in your head all week long, and finally you have the time to pursue them. But which one to choose? Let us help you guide your efforts with what we're taking on over the weekend.  Crisp Homemade Granola Say hello to the lightest, crispiest, clumpiest granola around. The secret is buttermilk, which soaks into the grains to tenderize them from the inside out, giving this granola a wonderfully delicate crunch. The oats bake low and slow, picking up notes of caramel and brown butter along the way, with a deep graham flavor from a bit of added wheat germ.     Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232-2017 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.
