Quick
Niçoise Toasts
Classic salad, meet the open-face sandwich. Our version includes garlic-scented toast and a versatile, new-school egg salad made with cottage cheese, parsley, and capers.
Whole Grilled Fish with Lime
With a dish this simple, you need the freshest possible fish—and good technique. Score the flesh down to the bone to encourage even cooking, and be patient when making the first turn: If you oil the grill grate well and give the fish time to cook through, the skin won't stick.
Cold Sesame Noodles with Summer Vegetables
We like vegetarian mains in summer; for a heartier dish, add shredded rotisserie chicken or sliced grilled steak.
Pasta Carbonara
Cooking your own sauce for this classic Italian dish is easy! Make this dish the star of your meal, or divide up into small ramekins to serve as a side dish.
Bacon, Egg, and Tomato Club Sandwiches
This triple-decker amplifies the classic fLavors of a BLT with sliced hard-boiled eggs, chive mayo, and a bundle of fresh herbs.
Arugula and Fontina Frittata
This easy and delicious dish can be served in sliced with toasted points and fresh fruit for a perfect presentation.
Fattoush
As much as I like tabbouleh, to me fattoush has more zing—plus it's less time-consuming to make and more adaptable. Here's one version of fattoush you'll encounter all over Lebanon, but in any home or restaurant you'll notice slight variations, depending on the season or the cook's palate. You can either deep-fry or toast the pita croutons that give the salad its special character; the fried bread will taste better, but toasted is, obviously, healthier. When tomatoes are out of season, I like to substitute cherry or grape tomatoes since they're likely to be juicier and more flavorful. If you can find purslane, use it (a cup or two, chopped); it adds authenticity and a nice peppery bite.
Ancho Chile Oil
Keep this versatile oil in your fridge so you can use it to enliven salads and anything grilled—especially flatbreads, fish, steak, and vegetables.
Green Charmoula
Spread this punchy chile-herb sauce on grilled flatbread or drizzle it over grilled seafood.
Grilled Kale Salad with Ricotta and Plums
Quickly grilling kale makes it crispy. Pairing it with fresh plums and ricotta transforms it into our new favorite salad.
Mesclun Salad with Veggies, Goat Cheese, and Crispy Garlic
Fashion designer Rebecca Minkoff shared this recipe for one of her favorite salads—it's an updated take on a salad her Mom made when she was growing up in San Diego. We've included quantities for all the ingredients, but Minkoff encourages you to make this dish your own and to taste as you go.

Tyroshi Honeyfingers
"[W]e seldom had enough coin to buy anything . . . well, except for a sausage now and again, or honeyfingers...do they have honeyfingers in the Seven Kingdoms, the kind they bake in Tyrosh?" —A Game of Thrones
Roman Honeyfingers
This recipe is a curiosity. The honeyfingers fry to a crispy crunch on the outside while remaining a bit chewy on the inside. The pieces are easy to cut into shapes, and could probably even be rolled into logs. The flavor is really all about the honey, but the pepper and cinnamon on top, as well as the pine nuts, add a slight complexity. piper, nucleos, mel, rutam et passum teres, cum lacte et tracta coques. coagulum coque cum modicis ovis...ita ut durissimam pultem facias, deinde in patellam expandis. cum refrixerit, concidis quasi dulcia et frigis in oleo optimo. levas, perfundis mel, piper aspargis et inferes. melius feceris, si lac pro aqua miseris. —Apicus, 4th Century

Delicately flavored sole is a dieter's BFF, with only 73 calories per 3-ounce fillet.
Barbecue Rub #67
After a lot of years of making barbecue rubs, I've used up all the good names, so sometimes I just use numbers now. Numbers 67 and 68 are a little tip of the hat to the band named after my hometown, Chicago. This one is a great all-around rub for the new barbecue cook because it's good on just about everything.
Seitan Flares
If you like hot wings, I mean really, really like HOT wings, try this grilled version made with seitan! Boasting the same texture and knock you on your ass flavors as regular hot wings, especially when you pile on the cayenne, you won't miss a beat.
Arctic Char with Orange-Lentil Salad
Can't find Arctic char? Salmon works just as well. Opt for green (aka French) lentils, which hold their shape better when tossed into a salad.
