Fry
Fried Herb Salsa Verde
This all-star topper can gussy up anything: steak, roasted potatoes—even a citrus salad.
Bacon, Mushroom, and Spinach Pierogies
To make this vegetarian, omit bacon and add 4 Tbsp. olive oil for browning mushrooms.
Beef, Onion, and Cheddar Pierogies
These are ideally made with ground shortrib, but using chuck will give you an equally savory filling.
Cottage Cheese and Blueberry Pierogies
These sweet pierogies help balance out the savory fillings from Kielbasa, Sauerkrat, and Potato Pierogies, Beef, Onion, and Cheddar Pierogies, and Bacon, Mushroom, and Spinach Pierogies, making them perfect for any pierogi party.
Brown Butter–Fried Onion Rings
Creamy, rich fat tames even the wildest fire—looking at you, raw onion—and makes any allium more tasty.
Silver Dollar Latkes
Sure, this recipe can make standard-size latkes, but the minis are just right for noshing while chatting.
Hominy and Greens Salad with Citrus-Cumin Dressing
Feeding a smaller crowd? All of the ingredients can be cut in half, and feel free to use whatever sturdy greens you favor.
Flaxseed–Chia Seed Pancakes with Bacon
Energy-packed flaxseed and protein-rich chia seeds give these flapjacks a lot more staying power.
Zucchini and Rice Pancakes
Somewhere between a frittata, a fritter, and fried rice, these little pancakes are packed with protein and delicious with almost any cooked grain or leftover greens in the filling.
Pinto Bean and Ham Torta
These fillings would also work wrapped up in a tortilla or lavash.
Bacon and Egg Tortellini
Are filled pastas still good at room temperature? This tortellini recipe proves that they are; if you don’t have tortellini or ravioli on hand, use any short, ridged pasta, such as fusilli or penne rigate.
Snapper Escabèche with Chiles, Garlic, and Oregano
Because it’s so delicate, the flesh can break down when marinated first, sometimes causing the fish to fall apart. A post-grill bath delivers flavor without compromising texture.
Salmon Niçoise
We love making this take on a Niçoise salad with mâche instead of traditional frisée for a slightly more mellowed recipe.
Almond-Crusted Trout with White Grits and Swiss Chard
The search for crispy trout skin stops here. Dredging the fish in ground almonds works wonders, adding a delightfully toasty exterior.
Rib Eye with Slow-Roasted Fennel and Steamed Broccolini
The same technique and proportions will work for a pork chop, lamb chops, or any other steak you like.
Stir-Fried Pork with Eggplant, Chile, and Runner Beans
Hot weather and spicy foods just go together, but this speedy stovetop dish won’t heat up your kitchen.
Stir-Fried Okra with Shallots, Chile, and Ginger
Working in batches ensures okra that's golden and tender, not soft and slimy.
Black Bass with Warm Rosemary-Olive Vinaigrette
For a complete meal, pair this black bass recipe with roasted potatoes, creamy polenta, or cooked white beans.
Pan-Roasted Salmon with Grapefruit-Cabbage Slaw
We’re big fans of the cabbage and crema that’s served atop Baja-inspired fish tacos. Along those lines, this crispy slaw brings out the best in a simple pan-roasted salmon fillet.
Crispy Rainbow Trout with Snow Pea Salad and Spiced Yogurt Dressing
This rainbow trout recipe is ready in under 20 minutes, and that spiced-yogurt dressing? You're going to want it on everything.
