You can choose to have two, three, or four meals delivered per week, and skip meals whenever you want. Meals start at $8.74 for the family plan, which can serve up to four people, but are $10 per serving for the classic and veggie plans. The portions were very generous (the carnitas pork tacos yielded six large ones) and the two-person meal plan would work well for three if you have just one small child at home, like we do. We wish that HelloFresh allowed you to substitute for better cuts of meat like Sun Basket does. The flavors of the New York Strip Steak With Truffle Butter were incredible, but the steak was a bit chewy. Our favorite dishes were the Juicy Lucy Burger and the Crab Cakes (although we could have used more of the aioli on that one). So while you’re saving yourself a grocery trip, keep in mind that you’re not necessarily saving time with dinner prep.įor the most part, our food turned out delicious. Most of the meals took between 30 and 45 minutes to prepare, with many of the dishes requiring use of both the oven and the stove top. A novice cook might not know to do that, and in fact, even though we’d rate our kitchen skills as intermediate, we found ourselves eating bland meat based on the instructions. Experienced cooks know to season generously otherwise, you’re eating a very bland piece of chicken or steak. Once desired thickness is reached, drizzle over pork chops and serve hot.Most of the meals took between 30 and 45 minutes to prepare.Īnother thing we didn’t care for is HelloFresh’s general “season meat with salt and pepper” instructions.

Whisk in heavy cream and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low again and simmer until thickened. Remove pork chops to a plate (or to an oven preheated to 200º F), then add remaining butter to sauce in skillet.Return pork chops to pan, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until pork chops are cooked through. Reduce heat to medium and stir everything together, making sure to scrape up the browned bits at the bottom of the pan.Return skillet to heat and pour in wine, lemon juice and zest, minced garlic, and thyme, then season again with salt and pepper.Remove pork from heat and transfer to a plate.Once hot, add pork chops and cook, without moving (other than to flip), until browned on both sides.Dredge pork chops thoroughly in dry mixture, pressing gently so it adheres, then heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.In a small bowl, whisk together flour, creole seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder, and season generously with salt and pepper.Paired with lots of thyme and garlic, this sauce is completely addicting and you’ll want to drizzle it over everything! Trust us, there’s no need for a sad, boring dinner, especially when you can whip this bad boy up. With a quarter cup of lemon juice, along with a healthy dose of zest, this dish’s lemon flavor hits you in the face in the best way possible. Many lemon dishes boast lots of flavor, but then you take a bite and wish it had more zesty “oomph,” but not this dish. While we love how creamy this sauce is, it’s the balance of flavors that we really can’t get enough of. Not wanting to fall into a chicken rut, we found ourselves eyeing some delicious looking pork chops the other day and knew they would make the perfect skillet dinner that everyone would enjoy…and we were right – it was a hit! When it comes to family dinners, we find ourselves all too frequently reaching for chicken, inadvertently subjecting ourselves and our family to dishes we’ve had many, many times before.
