The texture of shrimp cooked in the Instant Pot is such a pleasant surprise: You’d think the shrimp might be tough or mushy, but it’s firm, tender, and briny.

Jarred marinated artichoke hearts get super-crispy and delicious when roasted, making them the secret star of this simple sheet-pan dinner.

This is a spin on a recipe I created for my cooking show, Patricia Heaton Parties. I love the combination of hot, juicy shrimp with a crispy coating and a zingy dipping sauce. Delish.

Who doesn’t love a plate-sized pancake for dinner? In this Asian-inspired riff, the protein-rich savory pancake is made with a chickpea flour and coconut milk batter and studded with bacon, scallions, and turmeric-spiced shrimp. Top it off with fresh herbs and crunchy mung beans and it’ll gain a permanent place in your weeknight rotation.

These Thai-inspired clams are salty, tangy, and rich from the coconut milk.

This pasta is so packed with vegetables and shrimp that it's a complete, satiating meal—despite using half the normal serving size of noodles.

This take on the retro classic is a fun way to start a holiday dinner party. The recipe makes more Louie dressing than you think you might need—but that's a good thing.

This pickled shrimp recipe is perfect for a special occasion—perhaps as one part of an hors d'oeuvres spread at Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's Eve. The tangy pickled shrimp can be prepared in 45 minutes or less, though they require a bit of additional unattended time.

This classic technique gets a modern punch of flavor from briny olives and capers, sweet raisins, a splash of rum, and a squeeze of bright lime juice.

Juice lemons. Spoon out capers. Heat pan. Cook scallops. Make sauce in same pan. Serve.

When I made this recipe for the first time, I had it in the oven 4 minutes after starting the process, and I sort of looked around my kitchen, startled, thinking, What just happened? If anything could logically be described as “impossibly easy,” this would be it. If you’ve never experienced crispy kale, you are in for a serious treat. It’s a great snack on its own, but sooooo perfect with the tender salmon. This dinner is a keeper, man!

Made from canned salmon—plus a few pantry staples you likely keep in stock—and slicked with tangy red-pepper mayo, this burger is easy to toss together on the fly.
