Weeknight Meals

This is a creamy, cheesy, classic mac 'n' cheese you can make using your favorite new kitchen appliance!

These Thai-inspired clams are salty, tangy, and rich from the coconut milk.

An ancho chile spice mix serves double-duty in this dinner: it's the sweet and zesty rub for the tenderloin, and the seasoning for roasted squash and Brussels sprouts.

A vegetarian pasta dinner that's full of so much fresh arugula, it almost feels like eating a salad. In a good way.

When you cook broccoli gratin on a sheet pan, every single morsel gets an ample coating of crunch.

This sweet-sharp vinaigrette pairs well with the bitter chicories, but feel free to use another sturdy green if you like.

Give this American comfort food classic an Italian-American twist with ground beef, Parmesan, basil, and tomato sauce.

What happens when you cook with a lot of oil? Magic. Because oil conducts heat much more efficiently than air, foods that are confited in it, like these chicken thighs, come out incredibly moist and infused with the oil’s flavor.
