Stew

Creole seasoning is the key to adding a spice cabinet’s worth of flavor in just a few shakes in this one-pot dinner.

Ghormeh sabzi is one of the most celebrated Iranian stews. Andy Baraghani’s recipe includes lamb shoulder, onions, tons of fresh herbs, dried limes, and dried fenugreek leaves.

This Persian stew of tomatoes and spiced eggplant is just the warming dish you need on a cool, fall night.

My grandma used to make a version of this dish using pork and showers of Parmesan. I have updated it to include ground chicken and miso for a lighter, late-summer dish with equally deep flavor,  but feel free to use whatever ground meat you prefer. Gently poaching the meatballs is not only faster than roasting, but means none of their flavor is lost to a baking sheet.

Yes, turkey is a relatively lean protein, but when you pair it with white beans, a robust and concentrated chile purée, and simmer it for a short period of time, it delivers major body and richness. 

This stew recipe is all about those lovingly cooked and seasoned dried beans and the glorious (vegan!) broth they create.

Any vegetable or meat would be in good company with this stew’s spicy-funky base of kimchi, gochugaru, and gochujang.

You don’t need a tagine, a conical earthenware pot typically from Morocco, to make this warming, fragrant, tender lamb stew.

You can call it beef bourguignon if you want to sound fancy—nobody has to know how much easier it is than the French classic.

This is the hearty, rustic, and deeply warming comfort food you'll be craving on all snowy days.

This Polish hunter’s stew features kielbasa, smoky bacon, melty cabbage, and lots of delicious broth that can be sopped up with bread.

Instead of hours in the oven, this classic French braise only needs 15 minutes in the Instant Pot.

A punch fish stew with scallops and mussels and all the good things.

Cooking lemon slices to almost-burnt adds a layer of complex flavor to this comforting stew.

Make a big pot of this rich, meaty chili, a side of cornbread, and then never leave the couch.

Crumble some chorizo, set your bean timer, queue up a movie, and win Sunday: Netflix and chili.

If you don’t want or didn’t have time to soak the black-eyed peas overnight, just power-soak them.

If gochujang hasn’t made it to your pantry yet, you can use any miso.
