Chipotle Roast Chicken Tacos

Mexican pasta probably isn’t something you’ve thought about before, but this poblano sauce may have you rethinking your devotion to the red variety.

Tender, well-glazed, and just spicy enough, these ribs are the ultimate grill-out food. Cook fully in the oven ahead of time and finish them on the grill.

Rather than breaded and fried as you might expect croquettes to be, these are something more akin to a seared chicken salad patty.

Caramelized onions, melty Gruyère, and a deeply savory broth deliver the kind of comfort that doesn’t need improving.

Traditionally, this Mexican staple is simmered for hours in an olla, or clay pot. You can achieve a similar result by using canned beans and instant ramen.

This sauce is slightly magical. The texture cloaks pasta much like a traditional meat sauce does, and the flavors are deep and rich, but it’s actually vegan!

An espresso-and-cumin-spiked rub (or brine) gives this smoked chicken impressive flavor.

A little shrimp paste goes a long, long, long way in this delicious vegetable dish.
