Let's talk skillet recipes!

Well, if you're looking to simplify dinner time a little bit, look no further than these easy one pan recipes!

If you're looking for a more specific guide on how to get started with meal prep check out my FREE 5-day meal prep challenge below – it's a step-by-step mini course sent to your inbox over five days!

 

How to Make Skillet Recipes

There is definitely a basic formula for any type of skillet dinner, and that's usually picking your protein (chicken, steak, eggs, tofu) and pairing it with a ton of veggies, and possibly a starch like potatoes, pasta or a pre-cooked grain like quinoa or rice.

If you're going with grains, I suggest you cook them ahead of time at the beginning of the week. A rice cooker usually comes in handy here!

If you haven't prepped ahead, no need to fret! Most of the skillet recipes in this round up come together with a ton of protein and veggies so they're also low carb. The seasoning is key with these recipes; you'll be using anything from pre-made fajita or taco seasoning (store bought or make your own!), Italian seasoning, minced garlic, chili flakes and more. There's usually a super easy way to boost flavour without having to run to the store. Just take a look in your pantry!

    First one I looked at “then bake in an oven at 350” – the whole reason i’m reading this article is because I am looking for one pan skillet recipes not oven baked dishes as mine is currently broken. Disappointed.

      Hi Jane – these are skillet recipes. One or two of the recipes in this round up may need to be placed in the oven after sauteeing first, but the majority you will be able to cook in the one skillet on the stovetop. I encourage you to look further at the other recipes.
