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 Pressure Cooker Pot-au-Feu (French Boiled Beef and Vegetables) As long as there's still a chill to the spring air, the tender beef and buttery vegetables of this classic French pot-au-feu are still hitting the spot. And using a pressure cooker means the dish, served with a side of the cooking broth-turned-soup, can be on the table in an hour.   TUESDAY Katsudon (Japanese Chicken or Pork Cutlet and Egg Rice Bowl) Katsudon is just the easy and delicious dinner to make when you have leftover fried chicken or pork cutlets. The breaded meat gets sliced, then simmered with eggs in a soy-dashi broth, allowing for maximum flavor absorption.  WEDNESDAY Stir-Fried Lo Mein Noodles With Pork and Vegetables This colorful and crisp lo mein is the bright midweek perk you need. Stir-frying the crunchy vegetables, pork, and noodles separately is easy to do, and our secret to a dish that's evenly browned throughout.  THURSDAY Savory Buckwheat Crepes It's time to get to know France's other crepes, the savory ones made of buckwheat and wheat flour and known as galettes. Keep it traditional by topping the crepe with Gruyère cheese, a slice of ham, and an egg, or get creative with other fillings.  FRIDAY Pork Schnitzel (Breaded and Fried Pork Cutlet) Friday calls for comfort foods, and pork schnitzel definitely fits the bill. To get cutlets that are perfectly browned and crispy, we fry them one at a time. And to get back to the comfort thing, we serve them alongside a creamy chili coleslaw and a tall glass of hop-heavy beer.      Your Weekend Project Ah, the weekend. Visions of time-consuming kitchen endeavors have been dancing in your head all week long, and finally you have the time to pursue them. But which one to choose? Let us guide your efforts with what we're taking on over the weekend.  Easy Nixtamalized Corn Tortillas At the bottom of all the best tacos are high-quality tortillas. Learn to make your own this weekend with our easy recipe, which requires only a food processor, a skillet, and two ingredients—dried corn and slaked lime (an alkali to improve the corn's workability). The tacos of your dreams await!     Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232-2017 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.

Our Best Buttermilk-Brined Fried Chicken

Your Recipe of the Day No Images? Click here The Food Lab's Southern Fried Chicken  For many of us, growing up, fried chicken came from one place, and one place only: those grease-stained cardboard buckets peddled by the Colonel himself. But times have changed, and as is often the case, revisiting those fond childhood memories results only in disappointment and disillusionment. That said, stylistically, it can't be faulted. Here, we improve upon the original idea: deep chicken flavor; a flab-free skin; juicy, tender meat; and crisp, spicy coating. We might just be able to recapture those first fleeting childhood tastes of fried chicken as we remembered them.
