PAN SEARED SALMON WITH LEMON GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

Looking for an easy cacciatore recipe? This Skillet Chicken Cacciatore from Delish.com is the best!

Skillet Chicken Cacciatore

chicken thighs

kosher salt

black pepper

Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

garlic,

onion, chopped

carrots, sliced

mushrooms

dry white wine

chicken broth

c. diced tomatoes

tbsp. capers

No way your will look like that if you follow the recipe as written.  First, the tomatos should be a can of diced tomatoes not fresh tomatoes that you dice (I used fresh then had to add a can of tomato paste to get it sufficiently tomatoey).   Second, you need to let the sauce simmer for 15 min or so to allow the sauce to thicken before adding the chicken and covering. Otherwise, it will be more soup/stew.  Third, 4 sprigs of thyme is not at all herby. Add some Italian seasoning or other fresh herbs.

Pan-seared scallops cooked in the most delicious garlicky butter sauce. An easy and simple recipe you can make at home in under 10 minutes!

Garlic Butter Scallops

salt and fresh ground pepper, (to taste)

sweet paprika

unsalted butter, (divided)

garlic cloves, (minced)

lemon juice

lemon slices, (for garnish)

Thoroughly pat dry the scallops with paper towels.

Remove any attached side-muscle on the scallop by pinching and tearing it away from the scallop.

Season scallops on all sides with salt, pepper, and paprika.

Set a large skillet over high heat and add 2 tablespoons butter; cook until sizzling.

Add the scallops in one layer without over crowding the pan. Cook in batches if the scallops do not fit in the pan all at once.

Cook scallops for 2 minutes, or until browned. Do not move them around.

Flip over the scallops, lower heat to medium-high, and continue to cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, or until bottom is golden brown.

Remove scallops from pan and set aside.

Melt remaining butter in the skillet, scraping up any browned bits left on the bottom of the pan.

Stir in garlic; cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently. Do not burn the garlic.

Add wine and cook for 2 minutes.

Squeeze lemon juice into the skillet; stir, and taste sauce for seasonings. Adjust accordingly.

Return scallops to the pan and spoon sauce over scallops.

Garnish with parsley and lemon slices.

Looking for an easy stir fry recipe? This Sesame-Ginger Beef from Delish.com is the best!

Sesame-Ginger Beef

lb. skirt steak, thinly sliced into 1/4" strips

cornstarch

lb. green beans,

ginger,

soy sauce

tbsp. rice wine vinegar

sugar

green onions, chopped

sesame seeds

I really liked it but found it salty. I would try low sodium soy sauce and skip the salt on the beef. You can salt to taste later.

First, let me say this is delicious, and once you have all the ingredients prepped, it does come together quickly. However, does anyone else finds it takes forever to prep all the ingredients? It definitely takes longer than 20 minutes to make.

This was a hit with the family. I would definitely double the recipe to feed a family of four.

Great but we added a little cayenne Pepper and paprika to get more layers of flavor.  Also used toasted sesame oil.

This was a very easy dish to make and tasted fantastic. My daughter and I loved it. Lots of flavor.

This has become one of my favorite recipes. Quick and easy and delicious. Could also use flank steak instead of skirt. And I also tried it with broccoli and mushrooms! Mmmmm

This recipe is phenomenal - always tastes amazing. I sub broccoli for the green beans or chicken for the beef. The key is to cook on very high heat and stir fry. Delicious 🤤

Delicious and so easy to prepare. This went immediately into our Repeat Recipes file.

This was delicious. I added mushrooms and carrots and crushed my garlic with some red chilli. Didn't have rice vinegar so I used white vinegar, worked fine.

Sauce was perfect! , I chopped the ginger fine, grading just juiced it.  Definitely will make again.  Thanks

Tasty and quick. I double the sauce thinking it would be extra saucy for putting on rice but it just thickened due to cornstarch. Hubby said needs more sauce lol

This is a really good recipe easy to fix.We will definitely be making this a lot

So delicious, quick and easy! I will definitely make it again. Next time I will add in some broccoli and some other veggies too!

So quick, easy and delicious!  I steamed the beans for 3-4 minutes instead of 1 minute, but other than that I followed the recipe. I made brown rice to go with it.  I would double the recipe when making dinner for 4 so there are leftovers. So good. Feeds my Chinese takeout craving for sure.  Highly recommend.

Tastes like takeout but fresher and not as salty. The cornstarch did a great job thickening the sauce. Tasty and healthy. I used yellow squash for the veg instead of green beans, broc would be good as well. Easy.

Looking for an easy shrimp recipe? This Garlic Cilantro Shrimp from Delish.com is the best!

Garlic Cilantro Shrimp

extra-virgin olive oil, divided

lime juice

chili powder

cilantro,

lb. medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

I think the diced onions protect the shrimp from the skillet and help diffuse the heat for more even cooking. I got great results from 3 minutes for just the onions and four minutes with the shrimp. Appeared as if simmering as shrimp were finishing. I am optimistic about chilled leftovers for shrimp salad tomorrow.

Great mellow taste! Neither the garlic nor the cilantro were overpowering in these amounts. I did have to cook the shrimp for a while longer than what the recipe stated, around 2 min per side or more. I used the 31/40 size shrimp.

Looking for an easy salmon recipe? This Glazed Lemon Salmon from Delish.com is the best!

Lemon Glazed Salmon

This recipe is fantastic! Such a potent lemony flavor and the crisp on the skin is mmm I could eat this every night. Easy enough too!

Lemon Glazed Salmon Will Hook Even Seafood Haters!

Looking for an easy mac and cheese recipe? This Sloppy Joe Mac and Cheese from Delish.com is the best.

Sloppy Joe Mac 'n Cheese

lb. Macaroni

beef

onion, diced

brown sugar

c. crushed tomatoes

Worcestershire sauce

c. parsley,

c. grated mozzarella, divided

Bring an 8-quart stock pot of water to a boil and generously season with salt. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and return to pot.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown beef, breaking up meat with a spoon. Season with salt and pepper, then drain fat. Add garlic and onions and cook until softened, 2 minutes, then add brown sugar, tomatoes, Worcestershire, and chili powder and simmer, 10 minutes.

Drain pasta and add to skillet over low heat. Stir in parsley and half the mozzarella, then quickly toss together to evenly coat pasta. Top with remaining mozzarella and cover with lid to melt cheese.

Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

This has become one of our favorites. I have changed it up by doubling everything except the pasta and I transfer it to a baking dish before adding the second round of  mozzarella. It’s already hot so all you need to do is get it brown and bubbly on the top. This takes It from good to Drool worthy!!!

Substitute beef for chicken cubes instead. Tasted amazing although two tbsp of sugar is way too much. Will lessen the sugar next time I make this.
