5 Weeknight Recipes from the Busiest Moms We Know

Mothers and friends Caroline Campion and Kathy Brennan are familiar with the nuttiness of juggling work, after-school activities, sports commitments and erratic schedules—and they also happen to be former Saveur editors and cookbook authors. So when this duo offers up a great weeknight dinner recipe, we listen. This one, from their latest book The Dinner Plan, is for crowd-pleasing chicken fajitas, with a smart trick for streamlining the cooking process. While fajitas are typically prepared on a very hot grill or griddle in two stages (first meat, then veggies) with lots of smoke and sizzle, Campion and Brennan have found that you can also cook them at the same time in the oven. It's more convenient, less messy—and the results are excellent.
