“Ice-cold beer and chicken katsu don – doesn’t get much better! I like to serve my katsu with some chilli oil for a kick of heat," says Hayden Quinn.

"This family recipe is an adaptation of a classic Cuban dish known as ‘vaca frita’ or ‘fried beef’ The chicken adaptation was, I believe, a younger generation’s attempt at making the dish a bit healthier. But I must say, it is just as delicious, if not more so. Very simple in its ingredients and preparation, it’s an excellent midweek meal idea." - Danielle Alvarez.

This quick and easy rice bowl is the perfect midweek dinner option. Ready in a flash, this warm and hearty meal features juicy chicken thigh marinaded in a sweet and tangy mix of Japanese ingredients including sake, dashi and mirin and pan-fried with egg for an added depth of flavour. Serve with sticky sushi rice to soak up all of the sauce and a sprinkle of shallots and togarashi for a fresh crunch.

This succulent pork katsudon makes the most of your leftover loaf of bread in the most delicious way. In this classic Japanese recipe, juicy pork cutlets are covered in a flavoursome breadcrumb mix and fried until golden and crunchy. Place on a bed of fluffy, white rice and add a chilli wombok salad for a little kick, and you've got yourself the ultimate weeknight dinner.

A light and easy sushi bowl to help kickstart your week of healthy eating.

"With a burrito bowl, you can add as many elements as you want (or have available). We’ve chosen black beans and chicken, but you could go with red kidney beans and beef. So many options!" – Lucy Nunes

"Don’t be put off by the number of ingredients. Focus on the sauce - which is done in no time and is the key to this dish - then use up whatever vegies and mince you love or have on hand. This dish is served at room temperature, so there’s no need to stress when preparing each element." – Lucy Nunes

This quick dinner is perfect for any weeknight. Any leftovers make an easy lunchbox too. We chose chicken thigh fillets as the meat is much more tender and tasty. Add some sliced chilli if you like some heat.
