Citrus

Lemon-Pistachio Loaf

Don’t even think about lifting this cake out of the pan before it’s completely—and we mean completely—cool.

Pasta al Limone

This creamy lemon pasta recipe is luscious and amply cheesy, but still bright and fresh. Best part: You can make it for dinner in just 15 minutes.

Frozen Margarita Pie

Tart, creamy, and boozy—this is your favorite summer cocktail in pie form.

The Only Salsa You Need

Pico de gallo, but make it roasted.

New-and-Improved Greek Salad

The method for marinating the feta in this salad is also a good trick for other fresh cheeses—try goat, mozzarella, or paneer.

Peak-Season Slushies

Think of this smoothie-like sipper as a base, then start riffing. Try blending mild red pepper flakes with mango, finely grated ginger with pineapple, or cucumber and mint with honeydew.

Mai Tai Rum Babas

There's nothing better than puffy yeasted buns saturated in rum syrup, especially when it's inspired by the citrusy Mai Tai cocktail.

Grilled Chicken With Lemon and Thyme

A grilling recipe that's make-ahead friendly and doesn't have to marinate for hours to pick-up great flavor? Oh have we got you covered.

Grilled Scallops with Nori, Ginger, and Lime

These scallops get tossed with a mix of ground nori, coriander, and ginger before hitting the grill—then plated with citrusy mayo and topped with scallions and red pepper flakes.

Grilled Salmon with Lemon-Sesame Sauce

Adding an entire lemon—skin, pith, and flesh—to the sauce provides brightness and texture. Any bitterness from the pith will be offset by the sesame oil and honey. That balance makes it a super versatile condiment that pairs well with grilled or roasted vegetables and is great as a topping for stews and braises come winter.

Chicken Piccata

Slices of chicken get dredged in seasoned flour, sautéed in butter, and smothered in a tangy lemon-butter pan sauce that’s studded with salty capers.

East 62nd Street Lemon Cake

The zest of two whole lemons goes into this cake batter, giving it a real punch of citrus flavor, accented by the drippy lemon glaze that gets drizzled overtop.

Herb-Infused Lemon-Strawberry Loaf

Fresh herbs—like rosemary, thyme, or fresh bay leaves—infuse this buttery cake with a floral flavor that beautifully complements the strawberry and lemon.

Pear Pitcher Margaritas with Chile-Lime Rims

This party drink is something you’d imagine sipping at the bar of a trendy modern taqueria, except it's easy to pull off at home.

Za’atar Chicken With Garlicky Yogurt

Here the garlic- and lemon-infused pan dripping are mixed into a citrusy za’atar oil and spooned over the fall-apart meat.

Chile-and-Citrus–Rubbed Chicken with Potatoes

Letting a roast chicken sit for up to 45 minutes helps prevent the juices from running out of the meat as soon as you slice into it.

You can use whatever cut of steak you’re in the mood for—or even a chicken cutlet or thin-cut pork chop here.

Scrunched Cabbage Salad With Grapefruit and Chiles

Not just for slaw, cabbage is a snappy base that can handle lots of refreshing acidity—in this case from torn grapefruit and hot-and-sour chiles—without withering.
