Ouzo. The sun The sea If none of these are your reality right now, A defined one-pan Spanakopita-inspired dish is the next best thing. A riff on the classic Greek pie, the frugal, high-reward recipe is filled with fragrant chicken thighs, fragrant rice, fragrant spinach, chopped onions, fresh herbs, salty feta, and creamy ricotta (yes, two kinds of cheese).
The result, as one fan put it, is something “too simple for a weeknight meal, but impressive enough to entertain.” Oh, and because it’s all cooked in exactly one pan, cleanup is minimal – meaning you’ll still have time to watch Hey mother! for the 17th time. Well, we know our preferences.
Time Commitment: About 45 minutes.
Basic advice: Is the rice stuck to the bottom of the pan? Alex Snodgrass (aka The Defined Dish) recommends adding extra broth and stirring.
