How to Make a Classic Margarita

Step one: put down the bottle of store-bought sour mix.

Instant Pot Brothy Farro with Sausage

Spicy sausage, farro, and leeks simmer with white wine and herbs. A scattering of fresh radishes and scallions makes this simple dinner feel fresh and springy.

Spiced Cherry Spritz

This deep maroon cocktail has a hint of cherry cola, but a subtle, spicy, and not-too-sweet flavor.

Greens and Beans with Fried Bread

A day-old loaf of good bread can reach new heights when it's thick-cut and pan-fried in olive oil. We top these giant croutons with steamed clams or mussels, sink them into brothy soups, and crumble them over big salads. But this dish, a saucy little mix of beans, greens, and garlic, gives us a reason to look forward to Meatless Monday.

Chicken Under a Skillet

Butterfly your chicken with confidence—the flatter the bird, the more contact with the cast-iron pan—and the more crackly skin to enjoy at the end!

Pimm's Spritz

The combination of Pimm’s and Cel-Ray is pleasantly herbal- and celery-forward.

Cynar Spritz

Sweet, citrusy grapefruit pairs well with herbaceous Cynar, and adding dry Prosecco provides balance.

Ginger Spritz

This light, refreshing drink will be your new favorite to serve at brunch or picnics.

Campari Spritz

Dry rosé wine and lemon soda complement the citrusy flavor of bittersweet Campari, making for a beautifully vibrant summer cocktail.

Chicken Teriyaki

Served with a bright, refreshing radish salad, these salty, sweet, and shatteringly crisp glazed thighs will satisfy all your classic chicken teriyaki cravings.

Lamb Shoulder With Citrus-Fennel Salad

Lightly scoring the fat cap across the top of the roast allows salt and flavors to penetrate even if you can’t season it a day ahead.

Beer-Steamed Mussels With Chorizo

You can use any Pilsner in this recipe, but a Mexican Pilsner will go best with the chorizo. Serve with a nice green salad to round out the meal.

Slow Cooker Pot Roast with Charred Onion & Chickpea Salad

This recipe shines a new light on a classic. Cooking a chuck roast slow-and-low allows it time to fully develop its flavor. Pair it with a fresh chickpea salad to brighten up the dish.

Mary's Panna Cotta with Red Wine Syrup

Kefir and a honey-sweetened red wine syrup gives these creamy desserts a tart, refreshing, and sophisticated edge.

Sticky Maple and Bourbon Pork Ribs

Skip the same old boring barbecue sauce and opt for a sticky malt vinegar, bourbon, and maple syrup glaze to slick up these boiled-and-baked pork ribs.

Risotto with Caramelized Radicchio

Red wine and bitter lettuce give this low-maintenance risotto a punch of flavor and sophistication.
