There are one-pan dinners, and then there are one-pan dinners you’ll actually make on a Wednesday night when everyone is hungry and you’ve already used up most of your decision-making abilities for the day. 😂 This collection is firmly in the second camp. These are easy, family-friendly dinners made with everyday supermarket ingredients, minimal prep and, most importantly, very little washing up. There’s One-pan Beef Ramen Noodles for the nights when you need dinner FAST, cheesy Chicken and Broccoli Lasagne without the usual layering and fuss, Quick Dumpling Laksa that basically cooks itself, a Chicken Vegetable Tray Bake for getting dinner and vegetables sorted in one hit, and cosy Cheesy Chicken and Broccoli Rice. Five proper dinners, one pan each, and considerably less time standing at the sink afterwards.
