Classic steak and potatoes come together in one pan in only 45 minutes. You can't beat that!
Baking or grilling eggplant gives it a wonderfully smoky flavour and velvety texture. Serve on a platter with flatbreads and crusty bread.
Roasted vegetables, fresh basil and tender pasta tossed and topped with ricotta is sensational. Roasting your own vegetables is easy, and the resulting sweet, smoky flavour is worth the extra time.
Flaky phyllo pastry is the perfect envelope to contain these tender roasted vegetables. Feel free to change up the vegetables – red peppers, artichoke hearts and asparagus are other delicious options. To turn this veggie main into a side dish or appetizer, cut it into 12 portions.
Italians have endless variations on chicken roasted with potatoes but none better than this sage-infused one, in which white wine makes a glorious sauce.
Small chunks of marinated chicken cook up quickly then slip neatly into pitas for a satisfying sandwich supper.
