Olive Oil–Confit Chicken With Cipolline Onions
What happens when you cook with a lot of oil? Magic. Because oil conducts heat much more efficiently than air, foods that are confited in it, like these chicken thighs, come out incredibly moist and infused with the oil’s flavor.

Sweet Potato–Tahini Dip With Za'atar

Sour Candied Citrus Peels
These are like homemade sour candy and we can't stop eating them. Here’s an idea for the leftover citrus flesh: Use the juice to make curd, then gift it in jars.

Quick Thanksgiving Turkey with Lemon-Garlic Butter
What's the fastest way possible to roast a turkey for Thanksgiving? Skip the whole turkey: instead, roast bone-in breasts and legs. (If you don't want to butcher a turkey yourself, you can buy them in individual pieces or have your butcher break a whole bird down for you.) Once you put the pieces in the oven, they cook in about 1 hour and 15 minutes, and are so much faster and easier to carve and serve.

Red Sauce for Pizza
The only trick to this uncooked sauce is finding good canned tomatoes: If you can’t find Jersey Fresh, look for ones from California, New Jersey, or Italy—the only ingredients should be tomatoes and salt.
Kale-Dusted Pecorino Popcorn
Given that this popcorn is green and has the word "kale" in the title, it has proved to be shockingly popular among the preschooler set (to whom I'd bring it for class snacks when it was our turn) as well as adults.

Fennel-Rubbed Leg of Lamb with Salsa Verde
If you want to stuff the roast as pictured, ask your butcher for a butterflied leg, not tied. Double the ingredients for the rub recipe and smear half onto lamb, then roll and tie it, and smear with the rest of the rub before roasting.
