Hello there! If you’re signed up for Emily Weinstein’s Five Weeknight Dishes newsletter — which of course you are — you heard from me this morning when I shared five quick and easy pastas that would make really lovely Valentine’s Day dinner options.

But maybe you don’t want pasta. Or you’re not sure exactly what you’d like, but you want it to be fancy-ish but still simple enough to pull off at the end of a long week.

Sometimes all it takes for a dish to feel special is using an ingredient that feels a little precious, something that you don’t normally reach for on a weeknight. Just that extra bit of consideration turns a tried-and-true dish into a slightly glammed-up version of itself.

An excellent example of a recipe with this “easy but special” feeling is Yewande Komolafe’s honey-glazed chicken and shallots. Shallots are, of course, the fanciest onion that still lets you peel them (looking at you, pearl onions). Their pretty,phpgames soft purple color and soft allium flavor give this one-pan dinner a little glamour. I also love how they melt into soft little shells to hold the savory skillet sauce. I know I’ve used the word soft a lot here — it’s because this dish is a gentle sigh of a meal.

Robinson’s history of comments that have been widely criticized as antisemitic and anti-gay made him a deeply polarizing figure in North Carolina long before his bid for governor was upended last week by a CNN report that he had called himself a “Black NAZI” and praised slavery while posting on a pornographic website between 2008 and 2012. Now, some of his allies are abandoning him. Most of his senior campaign staff members have resigned. The Republican Governors Association said that its pro-Robinson ads would expire tomorrow and that no new ones had been placed. And former President Donald Trump, who endorsed Robinson in the spring, calling him “Martin Luther King on steroids,” did not mention him once during his rally in the state over the weekend.
