Quick Tomato Chicken Curry

The honey lends a sweet, caramelize-y twist to this quick curry, but if you want to up the heat, add a big pinch of cayenne pepper. Have some thick, crusty bread handy to scoop up all the extra sauce, or serve alongside a pile of rice for a low-maintenance comfort food dinner.

Gluten-Free Coconut Turmeric Pie

This recipe is inspired by the flavors found in the traditional Ayurvedic Indian drink haldi doodh, made with milk, turmeric, and honey. It's also gluten- and dairy-free.

Wilted Spinach and Bok Choy With Grapefruit and Sesame

Greens you can take on-the-go.

12-Minute Saucy Chicken Breasts

A roasting trick for weeknight chicken yields juicy meat and golden, crispy skin.

One-Skillet Steak and Spring Veg with Spicy Mustard

The ultimate fancy-but-not-too-fancy date night dinner.

Spiced Coconut Carrot Soup

Puréed soups are easy because they don’t require lots of knife work... but they can also be boring. Amping up the seasoning and topping with crunchy shaved vegetables and bright herbs makes it clear that this one's not baby food.

Butternut Squash Shakshuka

If you don’t have an ovenproof skillet for this shakshuka recipe, just cook everything in a medium skillet and transfer to a 2-quart baking dish before cracking the eggs.

Boozy Stovetop Pears with Yogurt

Amaretto is great if you have it, but, if not, substitute with any other brown liquor and it should work out just fine.

Jammy Eggs and Feta Flatbreads

Eggs on toast? That's a thing of the past.

Thanksgiving Stock

Make this stock recipe ahead of time and freeze it to get it out of the way. You’ll have stock on hand for weeks.

Leeks in Vinaigrette With Walnuts and Tarragon

Cutting the leeks into rounds is an update on the classic presentation—and makes them easier to serve to a crowd.

Cranberry and Walnut Relish

With just a hint of sweetness, this bright, bracing uncooked relish is an antidote to all the saccharine jellylike cranberry sauces out there (unless you’re into that sort of thing).

Morning Glory Breakfast Cookies

Think of these textured, dense treats as chewy muffin tops that forgot to be unhealthy.

Hanger Steak with Tahini and Smashed Charred Beets

When tahini is whisked with just some water, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt, it becomes an all-purpose condiment that can be made ahead and spooned onto nearly any dish.

Cast-Iron Roast Chicken With Crispy Potatoes

Size matters. This isn't the time for a mammoth Oven Stuffer, nor do we want some petite poussin—a 3½–4-lb. bird has the proportions we're after. When the breasts are roasted to perfection, all that dark meat is on-the-nose-done too.

Classic Applesauce

Cooking the apples with their skins on adds a beautiful rosy blush to the finished sauce.

Grain Salad With Olives and Whole-Lemon Vinaigrette

Look for Castelvetrano olives for this salad recipe; their buttery flesh and mild flavor will convert the most olive-averse.

Marinated Anchovies With Bread and Butter

For a simple, just-the-right-amount-of-salty appetizer, doctor up a tin of anchovies. The acid, heat, and olive oil mellow the anchovies’ flavor, and serving them with a seedy loaf of bread and butter rounds the recipe.

Radicchio with Tahini and Sesame Seeds

This tahini dressing recipe goes especially well with bitter greens but can also be paired with sweeter lettuces such as Little Gem or romaine.

Spicy Beef and Cucumbers with Black Vinegar

Never cooked cucumbers before? This recipe should convince you to give the method a try, especially when they’re quickly tossed in a hot pan and kept crisp, as they are here.
