Five 30-minute weeknight dinners we keep coming back to

Dinner shouldn't be a project

The best weeknight recipes are the ones you can almost cook from memory. Here are five that earn their place in our rotation — each ready in about half an hour, each easy to save straight into Kitchin.

1. Miso-glazed salmon

Sweet, savoury and on the table in 25 minutes. Roast at a high heat while you steam some rice and you have dinner with almost no cleanup.

2. Spicy peanut noodles

A pantry hero. Whisk peanut butter, soy, vinegar and honey, toss through noodles, and finish with scallions and chili crisp.

3. Coconut chickpea curry

Vegetarian, freezer-friendly, and somehow better the next day. One pot, twenty minutes, big flavour.

4. Sheet-pan chicken & veg

The ultimate low-effort dinner: everything on one tray, into the oven, done. Remix it in Kitchin to use whatever vegetables you have.

5. Charred broccoli bowls

Crispy edges, a punchy dressing, and grains you can make ahead. Light but satisfying after a long day.

Save the whole set to a cookbook and let Kitchin build next week's plan around them.
