I am always wildly optimistic about what I am going to cook for dinner right up until it is actually time to cook dinner.
So Campbell’s making a whole line of sauces built around the concept of cook the protein, add the sauce, done feels like they know exactly who they are dealing with.
Campbell’s has four new ready-to-cook sauces: Smothered Chicken, Creamy Lemon Garlic, Butter Chicken, and Thai Curry.
The whole point is dinner in two steps
These are condensed cooking sauces meant to go straight into a skillet with your protein. Campbell’s official recipes keep the process extremely simple: brown the meat, add the sauce and water, simmer until everything is cooked through, and serve.
That means these are not pasta sauces or finishing sauces pretending to be dinner. They are very specifically for the nights when you want something that tastes like you tried harder than you did.
- Smothered Chicken Sauce is built for chicken and mashed-potato type comfort-food dinners.
- Creamy Lemon Garlic Sauce is buttery, lemony and garlicky and works with chicken and rice.
- Butter Chicken Sauce is the shortcut-to-naan-and-rice option.
- Thai Curry Sauce is made for a fast curry-style chicken dinner with rice.
These are already rolling out
Campbell’s says the new sauces are available through major retailers including Amazon, Walmart and Target, and its official product locator can show what has been carried near you recently.
The brand also launched a Two-Step Tuesdays promotion around the new line, which honestly makes sense because Tuesday is exactly the kind of night where my original dinner plan turns into “I guess we are eating whatever is easiest.”
