healthy weeknight dinner

This easy one-pan dinner combines fresh salmon, arugula, orzo, bacon, and more.

One-pan Salmon and Orzo

bacon (chopped)

onion (chopped)

celery (chopped)

lemon juice

coriander

salt

black pepper

orzo

chicken broth

salmon

baby arugula (or baby spinach tightly packed)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon coriander, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Set aside.

In a large, oven-safe skillet, combine bacon, onion, and celery over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until bacon is beginning to brown.

Add orzo and stir to combine. Stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice and 3 cups chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until orzo is tender and liquid has mostly evaporated (about 10-12 minutes).

Nestle salmon filets into orzo mixture and sprinkle the coriander seasoning mixture from step 2 over the top of each fillet. Cover and transfer to oven. Bake until salmon is just cooked through (about 20 minutes).

Use a wooden spoon to break the salmon into pieces and stir into orzo mixture. Stir in arugula until just wilted. Serve warm.

Spoon the casserole onto plates and enjoy.

One more recipe we loved! My cabbage hating son ate it and said “hey mom, pretty good!” So we will be eating this often, and it’s so inexpensive and healthy! Thank you!

So good! The flavor was excellent and I love all the veggies. Great that it makes such a big portion so we can use for lunch leftovers. Will be adding this to our go to dinner list. 

We both really liked it. My 90 year old mother said very good. I had more veggies than called for because the carrots were small, so by using several ended up with 3 cups of grated carrots. I added 1 cup onion when the meat was 1/2 cooked. We may have had 10 cups cabbage. Mom didn’t want cheese on top. It would make for a better presentation with cheese but was fine without it. Tip for your followers - Use the full amount of salt. I often lightly salt my cooking, but I’ve made 3 of Taesha’s entrees and they need exactly what she calls for. 

The flavor in this dish fantastic. Total comfort food, and it was even better as leftovers the next day! I did add some chopped onion with the carrots. Inadvertently, i let it simmer without the lid so I ended up adding  8oz of tomato sauce to make it little more saucier.  It was still delicious despite my mistake and I will definitely make it again!

My family loved this recipe!! I was a bit skeptical since I don't normally cook with cabbage but my 16 year old announced, 'this is really good mom'.  Score! I don't eat meat so any time that I can make something that is good that I haven't tasted is a win in my book. Thanks Taesha!  This was easy and fast and will be added to our rotation.

This was a hit! My picky eater’s only request was to cut the cabbage a little smaller. I did substitute ground chicken for the beef. It was delicious! 

This was yummy and easy.  My daughter who doesn't like cabbage ate it!

This casserole is perfect balance of flavors and textures, and the one-skillet aspect seals the deal as one of my new favorite TNN recipes.  I did use a Dutch Oven for a bit extra room as Taesha recommended on the reel where I first learned of this new easy meal for regular rotation at our house.  On the nutrition side, the protein and calcium are up there with awesome balance of veggies for overall win.

Kevin Curry of @fitmencook shows us how to make one of his favorite keto-friendly dishes. Sear off chicken thighs and then stir up a creamy sun-dried tomato sauce, all in the same pan! Feel free to customize this recipe to your own liking by swapping out the chicken thighs for chicken breasts or shrimp and using light coconut milk instead of heavy cream.

Season the chicken thighs on both sides with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.

Heat a 10-inch cast iron skillet over high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the olive oil and the chicken thighs.  Cook for 3–4 minutes, or until the edges are seared.  Remove the chicken from the skillet and transfer to a clean plate.

Reduce the heat to medium-low.  Add the garlic thyme, and rosemary to the pan and sauté for 2–3 minutes, until fragrant.

Pour in the chicken stock, then add the sun-dried tomatoes and heavy cream. Season with the remaining ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1–2 minutes, to let the flavors meld, then add the Parmesan cheese and stir until melted.

Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, nestling into the sauce. Drizzle some of the sauce over the chicken.

Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes, until cooled slightly and the sauce thickens.

Garnish with the parsley, then serve the chicken over cauliflower rice with more sauce spooned on top.
