Quickly shallow-frying the chicken halves in shallot oil after they’ve been roasted locks in their juices and yields beautifully crispy, golden-brown skin. Served with garlicky boiled potatoes and topped with crunchy fried shallots and lots of fresh dill, this dish is perfect to welcome spring.

This is one of the best fried chickens ever. From southern Thailand, gai hat yai is known for its crispy skin, great aromatics, and super juicy meat.
An espresso-and-cumin-spiked rub (or brine) gives this smoked chicken impressive flavor.
Serve these as you would falafel: in a pita, on top of a salad, or as a snack with a dip.
Leftover rotisserie chicken finds new purpose in this endlessly comforting dish.
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!
Rather than breaded and fried as you might expect croquettes to be, these are something more akin to a seared chicken salad patty.
Just like the state fair, minus the crowds.
A pinch of sugar in the spice rub ensures picture-perfect grill marks with layers of flavor.
