You’ve had a long day, the fridge is empty and the idea of ordering takeout feels…uninspiring. But what if you could whip up something surprisingly gourmet with a quick stop at New World Metro Shore City? Forget bland dinners - we’ve got you covered with everyday ingredients that can be transformed into something truly special.

1. Pan Seared Salmon with Lemon Dill Yoghurt Sauce 

Salmon fillets are a staple in most Kiwi supermarkets, but nobody does it better than New World Metro Shore City. Pat the fillets dry, season generously with salt and pepper and pan-sear skin-side down until crispy, then flip for a few minutes. 

For the "fancy" touch, combine Greek yoghurt with fresh dill, a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Serve with a side of your choice. Sweet potato hot chips maybe? It’s a sophisticated and quick meal you can enjoy weekly.

2. Speedy Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken with Balsamic Glaze 

Grab some wholesome chicken breasts at New World Metro Shore City and wrap each one in a slice or two of prosciutto. Pan fry until golden and cooked through. 

While the chicken cooks, heat some balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan until it thickens into a glossy glaze. Pour it over your chicken and serve with creamy polenta and a fresh salad. Savour the delightful textures and explosive flavours.

3. Gourmet Mushroom & Blue Cheese Toast with Caramelised Onion

This vegetarian dinner option is decadent and easy to put together. Pick up a punnet of mixed mushrooms or button mushrooms, a block of blue cheese, a baguette or sourdough loaf and a couple of onions. Slowly caramelise the sliced onions until golden and sweet and sauté the mushrooms with garlic until tender. 

Toast thick slices of bread, then pile on the caramelised onions and sautéed mushrooms. Crumble over generous amounts of blue cheese and pop under the grill for a minute or two until the cheese is just melted and bubbling. Indulge to your heart's content! 

Fancy doesn't have to mean complex or expensive ingredients. Visit New World Metro Shore City for a gateway to surprisingly delicious and elegant dining. Enjoy our stress-free parking, making every shopping experience an absolute delight!
