[The Best Simple Recipes](
200+ fresh and flavorful
30-minute recipes
Dear friend,
Just because youâve got a half-hour or less to make dinner on some weeknights, that doesnât mean you have to settle for a can of soup or a sandwich or make another fast but flavorless recipe. Most “quick” recipes out there cut so many ingredients that they fall seriously short on flavor or rely on gimmicks that donât work. But we believe that simplicity and flavor should be anything but mutually exclusive.
[The Best Simple Recipes]( is a cookbook that delivers on the titleâs bold promise with 200 recipes that keep the ingredients and cooking time to a minimum (all recipes cook in 30 minutes or less). Youâll find a variety of meal options that can be on the table FAST, including main-course salads such as Thai Beef Salad , family-ready pasta dishes such as Cheesy Ravioli Bake, and elegant entrées such as Filet Mignon with Peppercorn Creamâand every single dish delivers on flavor. Order your copy now and get The Best Simple Recipes for just $19.95âa [33% discount]( on the regular cover price of $29.99. Time may be short, but you donât have to compromise.
Here’s to more flavor in less time,

The Best Simple Recipes saves you time in the kitchen
While some dinners are naturally fastâsuch as chicken cutlets, pasta, and burgersâwe found ways to make them even quicker and to pack in more flavor. We combined steps, minimized pans, and employed years of timesaving test kitchen techniques to develop quick versions of recipes that normally require hours.
Crispy Cajun Chicken with Bell Pepper Slaw
INGREDIENT
DOUBLE DUTY
MAYONNAISE
• Serves as the base for slaw’s dressing.
• Acts as the chicken’s “base coat,” ensuring that the bread-crumb coating stays put. Finding ingredients to pull double duty was one key to our success. For our Crispy Cajun Chicken with Bell Pepper Slaw, mayonnaise serves as the base for our slaw’s dressing and acts as the chicken’s “base coat,” ensuring that the bread-crumb coating stays put. Our Beef Tenderloin with Horseradish Mashed Potatoes is worthy of your best company, but you wonât spend all your time in the kitchen getting it ready. The secret is a quick sour-cream-and-chive horseradish sauce that enriches the potatoes and also serves as a tableside sauce.
While the majority of the recipes in this book are complete meals (composed of a protein, starch, and vegetable), in some cases, a side dish might help round things out. So throughout the book, youâll find dozens of simple side dish recipes that go beyond boring steamed vegetables. Recipes such as Sun-Dried Tomato and Goat Cheese Toasts, Broiled Asparagus with Balsamic Glaze, and Parsleyed Egg Noodles sound impressive, yet each of these easy recipes is only a few lines long and requires a minimum of ingredients and work.

Extraordinary flavor in under 30 minutes
You can’t top this burger
Grilled All-in-One Burger
[Burger]( This recipe livens up the plain-Jane burger by putting the toppings on the inside—in this case, bacon, cheddar, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Just be sure to cook the bacon before mixing it with the ground meat, and cook the burgers to well-done so that everything cooks all the way through.
Full Steam Ahead
Steamed Salmon with Asparagus
[Salmon with Asparagus]( Vegetable and entrée cook together in the same pan (the asparagus spears serve as a bed to elevate the salmon above the liquid), while a simple white wine and chive butter sauce makes the perfect finishing touch.
One pot, many flavors
Spicy Pasta and Sausage Bake
[Pasta Bake]( No need to use multiple pots here; you can make the sauce and cook the pasta at the same time in the same skillet. By the time the pasta has softened, the sauce will have the perfect consistency. A savory, satisfying dinner is ready to serve in just 30 minutes.
Better than delivery
Fast and Crispy Olive-Caper Pizza
[Pizza]( For an extra-crisp pizza that’s a snap to make, we use store-bought pizza dough and precook it in a skillet before baking. To make it even easier to prepare, you can use your favorite jarred pizza sauce.

Beyond the Recipes . . .
Finding the best shortcuts also means learning which convenience products are worth using, and we share our discoveries in “Smart Shopping” sidebars.
Lemon juice substitutes
Need lemon juice but out of fresh lemons? We found products that capably mimicked the tart acidity of fresh-squeezed lemon juice when used for baking (but stick with the real deal for lemonade).
frozen peas
We’ve always been big fans of frozen peas. Because they are flash-frozen right after being shucked, they are often sweeter and fresher-tasting than ‘fresh’ peas, which may have been in storage for days. Our tasters unanimously preferred baby sweet or âpetite peasâ over the regular ones because of their creamier texture.
garlic presses
We donât mince words when it comes to garlic. A good garlic press (our favorite is the [Kuhn Rikon Epicurean Garlic Press]( can break down cloves more finely and evenly than the average cook using a knife, which means a better distribution of garlic flavor throughout any given dish.
