A chicken dinner doesn’t get much easier, or more satisfying, than this. In just over half an hour, you can have a complete meal on the table that doesn’t require loads of dishes afterward. We call for tender haricots verts because they’re quick-cooking; traditional green beans likely won’t be tender enough after the brief cooking time. If that’s all you have on hand, steam them first, then add them to the pan for the final step. Serve this hearty chicken-and-potatoes dinner with a simple side salad to sneak in another serving of veggies.

Fluffy rice and earthy mushrooms simmered in broth with herbs. A warm, savory side that complements most proteins.

This tandoori chicken recipe is easy for weeknights since it bakes in one pan, but it is also special enough for guests. The best part? There isn’t much to clean up when dinner is over!
