There’s nothing that brings people closer on Christmas night than a warm, appetizing dinner. Your dish can be the winning meal when you consider these simple and easy to make roasts
Let’s start this list off with a classic roast. Roast Beef is a common Christmas dinner serving, and usually, it’s the main course! What better way to celebrate the holidays than to cook this classic meal?
What makes this dish easy to serve is the relative simplicity of its recipe. All you really need are compound butter, parsley, marjoram to melt over the roast beef. Pair it with spinach or any creamed sides or serve it with sausages, colorful fruit, and any extra garnishes. These will really heighten the savory taste of this delicious meal!
Who doesn’t love pig on Christmas day? If you’re opting out of ham this season, try instead a delicious pork roast to really satiate everyone’s hunger. Pork roast is simple and easy to cook (duh) and the ingredients aren’t too costly either!
For pork roast, all you need are garlic salt, fresh rosemary, ground black pepper, dried thyme, and the actual pork loin roast itself. Just make sure it’s boneless otherwise cooking it will be tough!
Beef tenderloin is as delicious as it sounds! While preparing it is incredibly easy, the material and meat itself are a bit on the expensive side. Hey, we said easy AF roast, remember? Not easy and cheap!
First things first, what you’re going to want to do for your beef tenderloin roast is trim off any silverskin and remove the fat. Then, you’re going to tie the tenderloin evenly so as to make sure it cooks perfectly and equally on all sides. Season it with butter, salt, and black pepper, put it in the oven, and voila! Your tenderloin is ready to serve!
Prime rib, also known as rib roast, is a popular choice this time of year. It’s also an easy dish to prepare, no matter if you want it medium-rare or well done you want it.
What makes prime rib roasts so simple to make is that they’re a dish that needs relatively little in the way of seasoning. Prime rib is already a delicious roast by itself, so there’s no hassle to achieve a fancier tasting dish. You don’t need much to have it taste so good, so salt and pepper are going to be your only friends when it comes to prime rib.
Ham! One can never go wrong with juicy, savory ham dishes on a cold, winter night. Ham is perhaps among the top five staples of Christmas dinner must-haves. So consider bringing the glazed spiral ham dish to the holiday table!
With a little bit of bourbon, apricot jam, dijon mustard, and brown sugar, the glazed spiral ham can be the winning dish to serve on Christmas night. With ingredients readily available anywhere and simple preparation instructions, glazed ham has never been this easy!
Here’s a new and exciting addition to your traditional Christmas dinner! Roasts like these are admittedly pretty uncommon due to their priciness, but they taste amazing and are no trouble to cook at all. If you’re afraid of geese in real life, here’s a dish that can help you overcome that fear! Or, well, maybe not. It is simply a dish, after all.
Roast goose is not the same as a roast duck or most other avian critters in this style. For one, goose meat is fattier and can become very livery should it be cooked for too long. So be extra careful!
Roast goose will need a lot of seasoning ingredients, but should you have all of them, the process of cooking it can be a very easy task!
Pot roasts are so common it’s not even exclusive to Christmas dinner! Churn out this delicious home-cooked meal in a few easy steps! Because it’s a pot roast, you’re going to have to depend on more than just preparing the meat. Figure out what kind of vegetables you’ll want to include, such as onion and carrot, and discover how they can enhance your brisket’s flavor.
The brisket itself is also just as customizable. Slab it with barbeque sauce or drench it in juicy oils. Make it savory your own way so long as it’s delicious and holiday-appropriate!
No Christmas roast listing is complete without the obvious roast chicken dish! Roast chicken is so common and popular this time of year, they practically sell it halfway made at supermarkets.
Really, all one needs to do to prepare roast chicken is have a functioning oven and a few key ingredients. These ingredients include the classic salt and pepper and butter. Once applied, just roast out all the chicken’s juices so it can be nice and dry but still flavorful!
Duck roast is a popular dinner meal that’s had so many variations over the decades, there’s just no one place to start! But, since this is about easy and simple dishes to cook, let’s just examine why duck roast, in general, can be a scrumptious dish that costs no hassle in preparation!
Duck roast is simpler to cook than goose roast, for one. While they’re both simple to cook, a roast duck has less sensitivity to heat and handling than goose roasts.
Filling out the last spot on our listing, roasted lamb is a highly sought out meat that’s always perfect for Christmas dinner. Roasted lamb usually collects the leg meat from this animal, so there’s not so much fat to cut through.
Serve lamb with mashed potatoes and green vegetables for a great mashup that’s bursting with different textures and sensations!
