A perfectly delicious dinner in 20 minutes? Yes, Virginia: there is a way. All you need is a trip to the grocery store. All of us dread that feeling. You just got home from a long day at work and your stomach is rumbling but the last thing you want to do is spend hours in the kitchen. To make our evenings a bit easier, TABLE contributor Anna Franklin shows us how to do 20 Minute Lazy Dinners with these four recipes.
20 Minute Lazy Dinner Recipes
20 Minute Easy Pesto Pasta
First, you quickly sauté sausage, pine nuts and asparagus. Add your favorite store-bought pesto and some heavy cream…and BAM! A pasta sauce is born.
20 Minute Beef Bulgogi Bowl
Sesame oil and soy sauce, along with store-bought kimchi and Korean BBQ sauce, form the flavorful backbone of this breathtakingly easy dinner. You will love it as much as we did.
20 Minute Creamy Chipotle Chicken Enchilada Skillet
Shred the meat from a rotisserie chicken. Sauté an onion. Flavor it with store-bought enchilada sauce, chipotle peppers and green chiles. Add a bit of heavy cream and some Mexican cheese. You’re just minutes away from a heavenly dinner.
20 Minute Coconut Red Curry
Thai cuisine is famous for its use of coconut milk and spicy curry sauces. Armed with commonly available grocery store items, and a clutch of your favorite fresh veggies, a memorable red curry is well within your reach. Wow the folks around your table with something new and oh-so-tasty.
