It can be fun to make a project out of dinner (especially when you’re serving a crowd), but washing a sink full of dishes afterwards? Not so much. To keep your post-meal chores to a minimum, we’ve rounded up seven dishes to cook this week that come together in a single pot or pan. These recipes make feeding everyone and cleaning up a breeze, so you’ll have plenty of time to squeeze in a few episodes of Selling Sunset before bed.

Salting the chops 45 minutes before cooking and letting them come to room temperature ensures a melt-in-your-mouth texture. The spice rub would also pair well with steak and ribs.
