Chef's Notes

I would put Crispy Baked Lemon & Herb Salmon with Maple Mustard Dressing early in the week's meal plan, while its crumb topping is at its best. Greek Lemon Baked Chicken Thighs give me another pairing for the Butternut Squash & Kale Orzo later on. With four proteins in this menu, I can repeat the orzo without repeating the same dinner.

Read the full notes

For reheating Greek Lemon Baked Chicken Thighs, I recommend a covered oven-safe dish at 350°F, starting with 20 minutes and checking that the center is hot. I would warm Butternut Squash & Kale Orzo separately, covered in the microwave for 90 seconds, then stir and continue in 30-second intervals until it is heated through. A spoonful of water in the orzo helps loosen the pasta without adding more dressing to the chicken.

Rosemary Garlic Filet Mignon with Mild Chimichurri and Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers take different directions on the same counter. I left the filet's pink centers visible in the slices, while the skewers carry a fine Parmesan coating and chopped green garnish. Mediterranean Style Mini Bell Peppers bring red and yellow strips, olives and basil into that spread, giving me a vegetable pairing for either protein.
