Introduction
Do you often think about making dinner, but by the time dinnertime rolls around, it just seems too difficult? Would you like to make dinner but hate leftovers and wish you had good recipes to only feed two people? Does most food seem like it takes too long to cook?
In this book, you will learn how to make quick and easy weeknight dinners every night. You will find recipes that not only taste great but will also be on your table in less than an hour (in most cases, far less). Find recipes and food you not only want to eat but are excited to try!
I wrote this recipe book because it has become increasingly difficult to find good recipes for two people to eat without being saddled with a ton of leftovers. Or worse, spending forever in the kitchen. I wanted to write practical recipes that people would not only enjoy but also want to cook. Cooking can be very satisfying, but that does not mean you need to do it for hours a day.
In this book, you will find 33 recipes. Each recipe is easy to read and use. It will have the following:
A title.
A short description or reason why you will want to make this recipe.
How many servings each recipe has.
How long you will be cooking.
The ingredients.
The instructions.
I invite you to keep on reading to see how cooking weeknight meals can be quick and easy! Enjoy your new adventure in cooking delicious meals for two every night! Onto chapter one!
Chicken Gyro with Tzatziki Sauce
This meal is perfect to end any weekday as it is quick and delicious! You whip these up when you come up by frying or grilling the chicken, or you can even use leftover chicken or cooked chicken you marinated in the tzatziki sauce during the day! There is no incorrect way to make this Gyro.
Chicken Gyros include all the perfect ingredients of a weeknight meal quick, tasty, flavorful, vibrant. You can include healthy for this recipe as well. However, if it is a little too healthy, you can always serve it with french-fries or onion rings. If you are really adventurous, you can put those fried treats right on the Gyro!
Serving Size: 2
Cooking Time: 20 Minutes
Ingredients:
Chicken and Marinade:
Tzatziki Sauce:
Gyro and Toppings:
4 pitas or flatbread
sliced lettuce
sliced red onions
sliced tomatoes
pickles
olives
green peppers
banana peppers
feta cheese
Instructions:
1. Preheat the grill or stovetop to cook the chicken.
2. You can either marinate the chicken beforehand or just mix the ingredients before grilling. First, brush the chicken with yogurt, then lemon juice. Next, mix together the rest of the marinade ingredients (salt, pepper, oregano, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder) and evenly sprinkle on both sides of the chicken.
3. Cook or grill chicken until done; the internal temperature should be 165F.
4. You can either prepare the Tzatziki sauce beforehand or while the chicken is cooking. Start by grating the cucumber into a bowl. Mix in the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, dill, salt, and pepper. Stir Well. Set aside.
5. Prepare the toppings you will be using, including washing the vegetables and slicing them.
6. Once the chicken is done cooking, remove it from heat. You can either put the chicken in the flatbread in one piece or chop it in before serving. Next, add toppings and finally the sauce. Serve and enjoy.
Breaded Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken Breasts
Stuffed chicken breast meals always look impressive, but they are really quite simple to make. By adding the cheese and spinach to the chicken, you can cut down on the sides you would need to serve with this meal and still end up quite full. Many people make this baked or pan-fried. This recipe is for a breaded chicken breast to add more flavor and additional texture to your meal.
These spinach and feta stuffed chicken breasts would be perfect when served next to or on top of lightly buttered angel hair pasta topped with Parmesan cheese.
