Shrimp Scampi Bake
Shrimp Scampi Bake
Garlic. Butter. Pasta. Shrimp. For a crowd (it serves 8!). What more could you want?Our super popular recipe for Shrimp Scampi Bake adds a little something special that's not in most versions but amps up the flavor in a major way—Dijon mustard. Plus, it's baked in the oven rather than sautéed on the stovetop, making it way easier than the standard Scampi. Eat it as is or serve over pasta.
What makes a "perfect" chicken dish? The secret is layering flavors and using the right cut of chicken. The sauce of this Perfect Chicken layers onion, garlic, wine, mushrooms, capers, heavy cream, butter, and plenty of herbs. That sauce goes on top of juicy chicken thighs that are browned on the stovetop and finished in the oven. Perfection!

Italian Baked Meatballs
Italian Baked Meatballs
These Italian Baked Meatballs are tender and flavorful. Best of all, you can bake them all in the oven instead of frying a few at a time on the stovetop. Freeze any leftovers for spaghetti and meatballs or meatball sandwiches and take the stress out of future busy weeknights.
The internet claims that once you make this dish for someone, it's so good they'll propose marriage. And while that claim may be exaggerated, we can confirm it is *that* good. This chicken with a Parmesan, bacon, and sun-dried tomato cream sauce will quickly become part of your recipe rotation, as it did for so many Allrecipes users this year. And, really, how many marriage proposals can one person handle?

Spaghetti Carbonara
Spaghetti Carbonara
This budget-friendly pasta dish calls for bacon, but pancetta works equally as well, according to some reviewers. After frying the bacon, sauté onion and garlic in the rendered fat as the base of the wine sauce. Eggs and Parmesan cheese add richness to this Italian classic. It's simple to make but fancy enough for company.

Million Dollar Chicken Casserole
Million Dollar Chicken Casserole
Rich, creamy, and incredibly savory, Million Dollar Chicken Casserole tastes like a million bucks, thanks in part to the Creole seasoning that adds a little somethin' somethin' similar casseroles don't have.

Baked Chicken Schnitzel
View Recipe
Baked Chicken Schnitzel is simply breaded chicken, done German style, mostly. It's usually pan-fried, but that can leave a splattery mess on your stovetop. This recipe bakes the schnitzel in the oven until it's crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. And, unlike the stovetop version where you have to fry the chicken in batches, you can bake all the thin chicken breasts at once.
