An espresso-and-cumin-spiked rub (or brine) gives this smoked chicken impressive flavor.
A pinch of sugar in the spice rub ensures picture-perfect grill marks with layers of flavor.
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.

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!
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.
Spaghetti is a common variation in modern Thai cooking. It’s so easy to work with and absorbs the garlicky, spicy notes of pad kee mao well.
