Hot Sheet: Sweet and Savory Sheet Pan Recipes for Every Day and Celebrations

by Olga Massov, Sanaë Lemoine

Overview

Transform everyday meals into extraordinary ones, with more than 100 recipes harnessing the power of your sheet pan, including breakfasts, starters, dinners, and desserts. Say goodbye to boring food and hello to flavor-packed dishes for weeknight dining as well as special occasions.

The sheet pan hardly needs an introduction—every kitchen should have one. The underappreciated cooking workhorse, sheet pans are versatile, practical, inexpensive, durable, stackable, and easy to clean—and you’re probably already using them regularly for quick-and-easy chicken and veg or staple treats like chocolate chip cookies. But Hot Sheet offers a more creative approach with elevated yet accessible recipes spanning from breakfast to dinner to desserts—and every course in-between—that will take you from weeknight suppers to celebratory meals.

Cookbook authors and editors Olga Massov and Sanaë Lemoine lean into their respective backgrounds to showcase the sheet pan’s full potential with more than 100 elegant and surprisingly achievable recipes, including:

• Giant Buttermilk-Cornmeal Pancake with Blueberries
• Open-Face Croque Monsieur for a Crowd
• Oven Ratatouille with Eggs
• Chicken Faux-gine with Olives, Dates, and Preserved Lemons
• Dumpling Filling Meatloaf with Sweet Potatoes and Quickles
• Coconut Fish en Papillote with Cherry Tomatoes
• All-the-Crispy-Bits Mac and Cheese
• Paella with Chorizo and Peas
• Cauliflower Steaks with Parsley-Shallot Sauce
• Sheet Pan “Fried” Rice
• Strawberry Snacking Sheet Cake
• Labneh Cheesecake Bars with Berry Compote
• Caramelized Bananas with Ice Cream

You’ll need nothing other than Hot Sheet for exciting weeknight dinners and special meals that don’t take much time to clean up. As Olga and Sanaë write, having a quick and easy meal doesn’t have to mean sacrificing taste or sophistication.

Editorial Reviews

★ 02/19/2024

Lemoine (Make it Japanese) and Washington Post food editor Massov join forces in this inspiring collection to extol the sheet pan as a versatile “kitchen superhero.” The 106 inventive recipes range from traditional oven-baked fare (roasted chicken with vegetables and dijon mustard) to creative translations, such as oven ratatouille with eggs and an “exceedingly simple” chicken “stir-fry” with greens and bell peppers. While quick sheet pan chili is similar to a stovetop recipe, the addition of amber ale, brewed coffee, and cocoa powder intrigues. Flavor experiments also show up in chaat masala “nachos”; curry gratin dauphinois, which combines curry and cream in a potato gratin; and gochujang steak fajitas with kimchi, onions, and peppers. For easy weekday meals, there’s fish and chips with a Ritz cracker coating, homemade Shake ’n Bake, and “quesadilla for a crowd” (which promises to be a hit with “hangry kids”). Lively intros explain the inspiration behind each recipe: butterscotch saltine or matzo brittle is based on a treat from Massov’s sixth grade teacher, while the Japanese oven burgers with cabbage salad are inspired by Lemoine’s mother. A fennel and citrus salad that’s “more of a framework than a recipe” and “quickles” (quick pickles) are among a handful of tasty side recipes. Home cooks interested in exploring and expanding their sheet pan repertoire will find this invaluable. (Mar.)
