Shopping tip
Keep garlic, lemons, canned beans, dry pasta and a bag of frozen vegetables available. They cover more dinner possibilities than a shelf of specialty sauces.
Cooking tip
Read the instructions before heating the pan, prepare the ingredients that need chopping and check chicken with a thermometer rather than relying on appearance.
Before you begin
- Choose cutlets or evenly sized pieces for faster cooking.
- Have a no-cook side like cucumber salad ready.
- Start rice or pasta first when it takes the longest.
