Recipes like our Sweet & Sour Pork with a Sesame Crust and 15-Minute Sheet-Pan Chicken Tenders & Broccoli with Everything Bagel Seasoning will get you a delicious and healthy dish on the table in just 15 minutes or less.01of 15Sweet & Sour Pork with a Sesame CrustView RecipeYou’ll recognize the flavors of sesame, soy and white pepper from the beloved restaurant dish that inspired this recipe for sweet and sour (boneless) pork chops. White pepper is more mild and earthy than black pepper, but either will work here.02of 15Skillet Lemon-Pepper SalmonView RecipeAli RedmondSimple ingredients like lemon, cracked black pepper and paprika completely awaken this fall-apart-tender salmon with a crispy exterior. Use this salmon to add protein to a grain bowl or salad, or enjoy alongside roasted veggies.03of 1515-Minute Sheet-Pan Chicken Tenders & Broccoli with Everything Bagel SeasoningView RecipeJacob FoxDinner is ready in only 15 minutes and cleanup is a breeze with these easy broiled chicken tenders coated in everything bagel seasoning with fresh broccoli on the side. The three-ingredient dipping sauce adds just a hint of sweet and spice.04of 15Easy Shrimp Scampi with Zucchini NoodlesView RecipeDiana ChistrugaEnjoy classic shrimp scampi lightened up with zucchini noodles in place of pasta. The tomatoes add some sweetness and color, while the cheese contributes nuttiness and richness.05of 15Grilled Red SnapperView RecipeThis simple grilled red snapper recipe has clean flavors and a nice char flavor from the grill. It’s well-seasoned but not overly spicy. Serve with grilled veggies or a green salad to make it a meal.06of 15Strawberry Poppy Seed Salad with ChickenView RecipeIn this healthy copycat of a takeout salad favorite, we combine precooked (or leftover) chicken and poppy seed dressing with fresh greens, strawberries and goat cheese for an easy throw-together meal that’s ready in 10 minutes.07of 15Salmon-Stuffed AvocadosView RecipeCanned salmon is a valuable pantry staple and a practical way to include heart-healthy, omega-3-rich fish in your diet. Here, we combine it with avocados in an easy no-cook meal.08of 15Mediterranean Cod with Roasted TomatoesView RecipeOregano, thyme and paprika flavor the cod in this 15-minute, Mediterranean-inspired meal. Olives, capers and roasted cherry tomatoes add color and zest to each bite.09of 15Chicken, Brussels Sprouts & Mushroom SaladView RecipeShaving the vegetables for this easy salad recipe makes them deliciously tender-crisp without having to cook anything and helps them stand up to the bright homemade vinaigrette and salty Parmesan cheese.10of 15Seared Salmon with Green Peppercorn SauceView RecipeA simple sauce of piquant green peppercorns, lemon juice and butter tops this seared salmon recipe. Green peppercorns come from the same plant as black ones, but are harvested before they mature. Typically packed in vinegar, they have a refreshingly sharp flavor. Look for them near the capers in most supermarkets. Serve with smashed red potatoes and sautéed kale.11of 15Chicken Curry Cup of NoodlesView RecipeMake your own cup of instant soup at home with this chicken curry zoodle (spiralized zucchini noodles) recipe. Pack several jars at once to take to work for easy lunches throughout the week.12of 15Quick Shrimp ScampiView RecipeMany scampi recipes involve cooking the shrimp with the other ingredients. You can do that here, too, but the benefit of cooking the shrimp separately is twofold: it’s easier not to overcook them, and you can whisk in the butter to create a smooth, emulsified sauce. Serve as an appetizer or as a main course with rice, orzo or your favorite grain, spooning the garlicky sauce over everything. It’s also great with crusty bread.13of 15Avocado Tuna SaladView RecipePhotography / Greg DuPree, Styling / Ruth BlackBurn / Julia BaylessJazz up a can of tuna with this easy avocado tuna salad recipe. Silky avocado adds creaminess that’s cut with a hit of acidity from lemon and a briny punch from feta cheese. Romaine hearts and cucumber offer refreshing crunch.14of 15Miso-Maple SalmonView RecipeWhite miso paste packs an umami punch to this healthy salmon recipe. But being the mildest and sweetest variety of the gluten-free fermented paste, it won’t overpower this dish. Use any leftover salmon (within 3 days) to make our Lemon-Garlic Pasta with Salmon, Easy Scallion-Salmon Dip or Spicy Salmon Cakes (see Associated Recipes).15of 15Chicken & Cabbage Salad Bowls with Sesame DressingView RecipeEverything you need (just 4 ingredients!) to prepare a week’s worth of healthy, low-carb lunches can be found at your neighborhood grocery store. A bag of prechopped red and green cabbage serves as the crunchy low-carb base in these chicken salad bowls, which only require 10 minutes to assemble. Top with sesame-flavored almonds and a sesame dressing and you have one irresistible lunch you’ll look forward to all week.Was this page helpful?Thanks for your feedback!Tell us why!OtherSubmit
