5 Dinners to Make this Week

One Pan Spanish Chicken and Rice

This vibrant one-pot Spanish dish pairs the smoky flavor of chorizo and tender chicken along with rice infused with onions, bell peppers, and a smoked paprika-based spice rub. Two of my favorite sides for this recipe are an heirloom tomato salad or a refreshing spinach mango salad.

Baked Halibut with Vegetables

A sheet pan supper of meaty halibut fillets roasted alongside juicy little tomatoes and tender green beans for a light yet flavorful dinner. This simple preparation lets the high-quality fish shine. It is wonderful served over a bed of lemon rice.

Grilled eggplant with a bowl a tzatziki sauce on a platter.

Grilled Eggplant with Whipped Feta

Smoky grilled eggplant slices are transformed when topped with tangy whipped feta and fresh herbs. The contrast between the warm, charred vegetable and the cold, creamy dip is a summertime favorite. Serve this alongside a quinoa salad for a dynamic vegetarian dinner.

Greek Green Beans (Fasolakia)

This is a classic Greek vegetable stew of fresh green beans slow-simmered in a rich tomato sauce with fragrant garlic and extra virgin olive oil. Enjoy them on their own with crusty bread and maybe a jammy egg or two, then enjoy the leftovers as an easy side to simple proteins, like lemon and garlic chicken drumsticks or roasted branzino.

Turkey meatballs on a plate with a Mediterranean tomato and cucumber salad.

Turkey Meatballs with Spinach, Feta, and Mint

These lean turkey meatballs stay incredibly moist thanks to an abundance of fresh herbs, a little tangy feta, and spinach. You can, of course, toss these meatballs with tomato sauce, but they're also great on their own with a simple chopped salad and a little dill sauce.
