One pan, two plates: more than 70 complete weeknight meals for two (Chronicle Books)

One Pan, Two Plates features 100 recipes that are complete made-from-scratch meals with one-pan clean-up and ready to eat in under one hour, with many under 30 minutes. Each one-pan meal includes a protein and a side dish. Most of the cooking is done in a heavy 12-inch skillet with a lid. The heavy gage pan allows you to cook over hotter, faster heat and the 12-inch size is perfect for two complete meals. For two huge segments of the market: the newlywed/newly moved in together and the empty nesters, these recipes offer full meals that cook up in one pan, making it easy to prepare a balanced meal and clean up quickly--leaving more time for living life to the fullest. Ingredients are fresh and healthy, which appeals to the increasingly food-savvy consumer.
