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 Spanish-Style Garlic Shrimp (Gambas al Ajillo)  One of our favorite quick-and-easy dinners, these shrimp are tender, and the flavorful oil is perfect for sopping up with crusty bread, or drizzling over rice.   TUESDAY Chorizo Quesadillas With Radish and Fennel Salsa  Crispy tortillas filled with spicy chorizo and gooey cheese, these quesadillas are balanced by the fresh, unusual flavor of a radish and fennel salsa. It's a sophisticated pairing that elevates a familiar comfort food. WEDNESDAY Japanese Chicken Skewers With Scallion (Negima Yakitori) No thermometer? No problem. Negima yakitori is made with chicken thighs, which stay juicy and tender even if you don't keep a close eye on the temperature. Make a double helping of rice—some for a side the skewers, some to use for Thursday's recipe! THURSDAY Kimchi and Spam Fried Rice You don't have to fly all the way to Hawaii to get a taste of the local flavors—all you need is this recipe. Break out that can of Spam you inevitably have hanging out in your pantry, grab your funkiest kimchi, and fry it all up with some aromatics and an egg. Voila.  FRIDAY Sabich Sandwiches Filled with moist slices of fried eggplant, hard-boiled egg, a generous layer of creamy hummus, crunchy Israeli pickles, and Israeli salad, and drizzled with tahini sauce and amba, a pickled-mango sauce, the sabich is all you could want in any sandwich, and more.     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.  Chicken Pot Pie with Biscuit Topping Nothing says cozy autumnal Sunday like Stella's chicken pot pie on the dinner table. We opted for the biscuit-topped version here, but if you're looking for an even bigger project, you can try your hand at the double-crust pastry version.     Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232-2017 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.
