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 Smoky Lamb Meatballs With Baba Ganoush Make meatballs a meal with this brown butter–enriched lamb variety, served over almond-butter baba ganoush. The meatballs—a mixture of lamb, fresh mint, raisins, almonds, and butter—can be cooked on the grill, or on a gas burner if it’s still cold where you are.   TUESDAY Seven-Layer Salad With Chickpeas, Endive, and Yogurt Dressing When you know dinner's going to fall at a busy time, plan on this make-ahead salad. It takes only 20 minutes to stack up the layers: chickpeas, endive, salted cucumber, onion, celery, radishes, and yogurt seasoned with lemon, mint, and dill. WEDNESDAY Chicken Salad With Kimchi, Ginger, and Scallions Here’s a chicken salad sandwich for the kimchi-loving, the mayo-shy, and the hungry-yet-hurried. It takes just 10 minutes to toss the chicken with kimchi, celery, pine nuts, scallions, and ginger, and pack it between slices of bread. THURSDAY Frittata With Bacon, Corn, and Gruyère A frittata is an ideal weeknight dinner: It’s quick and it’s satisfying. And, while you could throw anything in it, we’ll save you a round of experimentation and suggest this surefire combo of smoky bacon, sweet corn, and Gruyère. FRIDAY Breaded Fried Pork Chops Breaded-and-fried foods are the kind of comfort we want after a busy week, and these fried pork chops are no exception.. The chops get thinly cut and fried in a mixture of panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and fresh sage. Serve them with  mashed potatoes for a meal that feels like a celebration of Friday.      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.  Honey Semifreddo (Frozen Italian Dessert) Not familiar with semifreddo? This weekend is the perfect time to change that. A superb cross between ice cream and mousse, it's made of whipped eggs, cream, vanilla, rose water, and honey, and can be served with the toppings of your choice—perhaps cherries and nuts?       Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232-2017 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.
