1. Shrimp Fettucine Alfredo

Fettucine Alfredo is one of the favorites when it comes to dinner ideas for two. It’s easy, cheesy, quick and just perfectly delicious. If you both enjoy cheese and shrimps than this is the best option for you.

There are for important tips for you to take into account when making this dish: do not overcook the pasta, always read the instructions on the back of the package, there’s nothing worse than a mushy pasta, you want this to be al dente; do not overcook the shrimp, it cooks quite fast and last but not least… do get a high quality parmesan cheese.


2. Lemon Butter Chicken

After trying this delish, you will write it down in your “finger licking good dinner ideas for two” cookbook. The sauce is very easy to throw together and the combination of the ingredients is too good to be true.

Just saute your chicken, set it aside once is ready and then start making your sauce by mixing fresh minced garlic with butter into the same pan where you cooked the chicken, add some chicken broth, heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and fresh lemon juice.

3. Caprese Steak

If you are both meat lovers and enjoy a good steak any day of the week you will really like this dish. Season your steak with salt and pepper and grill to desired doneness. Once you remove it off of the grill, add a slice of fresh tomato, mozzarella, and basil.


4. Garlic Lemon Shrimp

They say seafood and crustaceous are aphrodisiacs, we don’t know if that’s 100% accurate but what we do know is that usually after having them something magical happens and the right mood sets on for a very sensual romantic night.

5. Oven Pork Chops

One of the easiest meats to cook might be pork chops, they cook in no time and don’t need much seasoning to have a good flavor. Rub them with salt and pepper to taste and a bit of olive oil, pop them in the oven in a skillet for about 5 minutes.
