Honey Chipotle Salmon Sheet Pan Recipe

March 11, 2021

Honey Chipotle Salmon, ready in under 30 minutes! A little sweet, a little spicy and a LOT delicious! This sheet pan dinner is great for weeknights. One pan means quick and easy clean up. Bake as many pieces as needed, this recipe is easy to scale up or down to fit your family’s needs.

Weeknight recipes need to be quick, easy and fairly light on effort. This sheet pan salmon checks all of those boxes and is also a great meal for meal prepping.

I actually prefer cold salmon over warm, so I make a few extra pieces for tossing in salads during the week.

Grilled Cajun Shrimp and Potato Skewers

June 11, 2020

Grilled cajun shrimp skewers are a quick and easy dinner with almost no clean up! Made with Idaho® cajun potato wedges and corn on the cob, these skewers are finished with a cajun garlic butter sauce.

I wanted to create flavors similar to a shrimp boil on the grill. Not exactly the same, but similar. If you wanted to add sausage to your skewers (which would be delicious), that would get you a little closer.

There is just a bit of heat (omit cayenne if you don’t like spicy) in these skewers. The flavors of the cajun shrimp, potatoes and corn together are absolutely delicious.

Using the leftover grilled potato wedges, you can also make vegan vegetable cakes for another side dish with cajun seasoning.

This recipe is sponsored by my friends at Idaho Potato. I am so pleased to work with them. As always, all opinions, recipe and photos are my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that support Pook’s Pantry.
