A last-minute addition of basil pesto turns creamy risotto into the ultimate bowl of spring comfort.

Have half an hour? That’s all you need to make Thai-inspired curry noodle bowls (with steak!).

We tried a lot of meatloaf recipes in our test kitchen to create the ultimate version. We promise it won't disappoint.

Easier than burrito bowls—and even more delicious.

Coating the herbs in oil and soaking the shallot in vinegar prevents oxidation, so you can keep these beans for days.

On the streets of Lisbon and outside any nightclub or bar in Johannesburg, you’ll find vendors grilling steak and slathering garlic butter on a soft bun—heaven. The key to this mouth-watering street food is finding a soft, airy roll to absorb the steak juices. If there is a Portuguese market near you, you’re in luck! If not, look for a soft roll dusted with flour at your local bakery.

Most. Flavor-packed. Chicken. Ever.

Bridge the gap between chilly weather and the first warm breezes of spring with this lazy-day braise.

Fried whitefish or smoked whitefish is most commonly eaten during the Persian New Year and is said to represent life.

This lattice-topped, make-ahead casserole is almost too pretty for its own good.

This quick and spicy riff on General Tso’s chicken relies on ingredients you probably already have in the pantry.

This yolk-heavy carbonara is beyond creamy—without cream!—with a heady mix of peppercorns (you can substitute black pepper for all and it's still great). It's unlike any clumpy carbonaras you've had. It's a pasta worth mastering.

A delightfully mustardy version of the battered and fried turkey, ham, and cheese sandwiches.

These tasty sandwiches are best after chilling for several hours, so they're the perfect make-ahead for camping trips.

Ask your butcher for lamb backstraps, an interior cut from the loin that is lean and exceedingly tender.

Asparagus, snap peas, green onions, edamame, spinach, and cilantro make this vegetarian noodle stir-fry plenty green and powerfully healthy.

My love for Asian food is never-ending, and this easy, quick chicken meatball creation is a favorite. The secret here is to steam the meatballs so they remain tender and succulent. Searing briefly afterward adds a wonderfully caramelized crust without overcooking.

Cauliflower might not be a traditional ingredient in larb recipes, but the toasted rice powder is.
