What should I make for dinner/dessert for my friends? I invited over a married couple and one single friend?

They're all pretty easy going, no one too picky. But I'd like to make something kinda unique. They can get pizza, spaghetti or baked chicken anywhere! Is there something else for dinner (and dessert) that I could make for 4 people without *too* much hassle?What should I make for dinner/dessert for my friends?

you should make coq au vin(stewed chicken in a red or white wine sauce) then for dessert make a moulten chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream.


Coq au vin is pretty simple to make and everyone will enjoy it you just brown up the chicken add some bacon, mushrooms, pearl onions chicken stock flour add the chicken and let it simmer on low untill chicken is tender.
There are lots of things you could make. You could try center cut porkchops I love them baked just sprinkle with salt pepper garlic salt put them in a shallow glass baking dish fill with water almost to the top of the chops add a few spoons of butter and what i call a magic touch which would be italian salad dressing sounds weird but it tastes great just pour all over top of chops then cover with aluminum and bake at around 325 to 350 for about 90 mins then take aluminum off all the while keeping an eye on the water level to brown them for a few minutes. minimal prep but delicious. Add random side item green beans corn on cob a salad...etc





as for dessert or maybe something else try browsing around on the foo networks website im sure they would have some great ideas that would peak your interest!
BBQ cheeseburgers with onion rings and a side salad or a salad as an appetizer or starter!!!! For dessert maybe you could make big chocolate chip cookies and put ice cream in the middle and freeze them. they are sooo goood !!! my sister in law made them for new years and I had two of them. basically they are big cookies with ice cream in the middle. Good Luck !! I hope you do well and your guests love whatever you make for them !!!
A cheese fondue would be fun, if you have or can borrow a fondue pot or something that would substitute for it. You can pick up crusty rolls to dip, add some unusual pickled veggies. Serve fresh fruit for dessert.
Spaghetti. With baked chicken.


And salad on the side.


Wine or water to drink.


For dessert a gelatin with fruit in it.
Every try something Italian but rare? Like say...pizza but with different toppings, hmm could be anything really.
