Yes, I found another sheet pan recipe. However, I think my husband is beginning to tire of these, but if you’re a busy family, short on supper prep time, these sheet pan meals that you’ll find on my website can be a Godsend.
 
Last week I prepared Sheet-Pan Chicken with Sweet Potatoes and Peppers. This recipe needs apple cider vinegar, honey, red onion, kosher salt, fresh garlic, ground coriander, freshly ground black pepper, bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, extra-virgin olive oil, sweet potato, fresh sage, sweet paprika, cayenne, ground allspice and cilantro.

Time is just flying by! Between babysitting, work and life, some nights I’m too tired to put my thoughts down regarding the wonderful dishes I’ve made.
 
Recently I prepared a recipe by Claire Robinson, Ginger and Lemon Roasted Chicken with Braised Fennel. Ms. Robinson is a chef and host of the Food Networks shows “Five ingredient Fix” and “Food Network Challenge. For the recipe you’ll need a roasting chicken, 6-inch piece of fresh ginger, a lemon, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, 2 fennel bulbs and water. ​

​Last winter The New York Times Cooking published a “Sheet-Pan Everything,” supplement. I found these recipes exceptional and have prepared at least a half dozen of them. Last night, I made Gochujang Chicken and Roasted Vegetables. Gochujang (available at Wegmans) is a spicy paste made from red chili peppers, fermented soybeans, glutinous rice and salt. This traditional Korean sauce is both sweet and spicy while also adding a layer of umami.

The autumn season began September 22nd and I am behind in posting…again! Now that the cooler weather is upon us, I came across some delicious and easy dishes to prepare. Here’s a listing of what I’ve made: Molasses-Glazed Roast Pork with Sweet Potatoes, Spice-Rubbed Spatchcock Chicken, Skillet Hot Honey Chicken with Heart Greens, Lasagna with Roasted Eggplant, Apple Galette and Philly Style Stuffed Peppers. I selected these recipes based on their ease and reviews from other cooks as to how the meal turned out.
 
The Molasses-Glazed Roast Pork with Sweet Potatoes had the flavors of fall and, best of all, was a sheet pan meal! I found the recipe on the Williams-Sonoma website. I wanted to prepare one meal that could easily serve not only my husband and I, but that I could share with son and daughter-in-law, who are new parents. A boneless pork tenderloin fit the bill. For the ingredients you’ll need 2 pork tenderloins, light molasses, Dijon mustard, fresh garlic rosemary, red pepper flakes, orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, olive oil, a shallot and chicken broth. The molasses, mustard, rosemary and red pepper flakes make the glaze. ​

​I am thoroughly enjoying sharing a CSA box with my daughter. Over the past few weeks (Week 9-14) I’ve had white corn, green and yellow squash, yellow and purple onions, pickles, green leaf lettuce, bell peppers, eggplant, garlic scapes, potatoes, plums and cucumbers.
 
I made another jar of pickles , green zucchini was incorporated into turkey meatballs (recipe to follow), potato salad and the last of the season garlic scapes made more salad dressing.

sheet pan meals makes supper prep easier

4/26/2021

When our kids were young, they participated in a variety of sports. As parents, we supported them by attending all their games. This could be difficult on weeknights, especially when everyone comes home ravenous. I wish I had an arsenal of one pot, skillet or pan dishes.

Now it’s just my husband and I and these meals are great when I want something that has minimal prep or cook time. Recently, I made several sheet-pan chicken dishes that offered a variety a flavor; i. e., Orange-Rosmary Roasted Chicken, Sweet and Spicy Sheet Pan Chicken with Cauliflower and Carrots and Sheet-Pan Paprika Chicken with Tomatoes and Parmesan.

weeknight meals

​Every family should have at its disposal nutritious, easy to prepare meals. Here are two that my husband and I recently enjoyed. We both could eat pasta every night of the week. Recently  I found on the NYT Cooking website, a recipe for  Butternut Squash Pasta with Bacon and Parmesan. The recipe serves 4 to 6; for us it became a quick encore meal.
 
For the recipe you’ll need butternut squash, olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, red onion, thick sliced bacon, short twisty pasta (campanelle or cavatappi), Parmesan cheese, fresh chives and fresh parsley. For my preparation I changed the bacon to finely diced pancetta I purchased at my local food store.

sheet pan queen

​Because of work or family obligations, I’m finding sheet pan meals are a quick option for me and, hopefully, those people short on time. With some planning, you can still prepare a home cooked meal with minimal time and effort. You’ll need handful of recipes for the week, a  shopping list with all ingredients needed; then either shop in person or online.
 
This past Sunday, the At Home section of “The New York Times” had two terrific recipes. Spicy Sheet-Pan Sausage and Squash and Sheet-Pan Chicken with Potatoes, Scallions and Capers. The first recipe took 30 minutes and the latter 40.

​I feel like the queen of sheet pan meals. I got started cooking this way last year, when the New York Times prepared a supplement called, “One Pot |Pan| Skillet, 24 Brilliant  Recipes for Everyone Who Hates Doing the Dishes.” This time, Lidey Heuck has created a recipe called Sheet-Pan Sausages with Caramelized Shallots and Apples.

Winner, winner chicken dinner

Yes, a winner. In a recent newsletter from NYT Cooking, I came across a recipe for Sheet-Pan Chicken with Sweet Potatoes and Fennel. It sounded easy, used a vegetable combination I wouldn’t have  thought of and it had a tart and cheesy sauce that went over the entire dish.

In addition to the chicken you’ll need olive oil, salt, medium sweet potatoes, small fennel bulb, white wine vinegar, lemon (need zest and juice), Dijon mustard, garlic, black pepper, pecorino cheese. The recipe developer is Ms. Yewande Komolafe and she says you can substitute the sweet potatoes and fennel with other vegetables.
