Shellfish

Don't Move a Mussel—Seriously—this one-pot dinner is that easy. Sweet cherry tomatoes, earthy chorizo, and a splash of wine do the heavy lifting.

Poaching the shrimp with their shells on locks in their flavor.

Chop up a lemon—flesh, rind, and all—and stir it into an herby salsa to spoon over sweet charred scallops.

Splitting lobsters in half makes them easier to grill—and eat.

Invite the gang to make their own lettuce wraps with fall-apart tender pork, rice, and pickled radishes and carrots.

I love kimchi. To me, the world is a better place when we all enjoy kimchi. Fiery and fun, it gives a kick to all food.

You'll find fresh rice noodles in well-stocked Asian markets (or search for them on amazon.com).

Quick-cooking squid is perfect for a weeknight dinner. Look for it at a reputable fish monger or in your grocer's freezer section.

I love getting some color into my salads. In this recipe it's by adding some pink grapefruit and radishes. Combining fresh flavors with a good source of protein scores this salad top marks for energy and vitality.
