This salsa recipe is for those who don't fear heat—habaneros are much higher on the Scoville scale than jalapeños.

The bite of mustard and the char of the grill amp up the flavor of tender but mild-tasting filet mignon. Be sure to have all the sauce ingredients ready to go before starting the meat. For perfect timing, add the cream to the sauce while the steaks are resting; they'll be done at the same time.

Polish sausage gives the onions and chiles a rich, smoky flavor.

This polenta is the perfect match for a fresh and summery tomato-basil sauce.

These new potatoes don't take too long to cook, and do taste great with a compound butter.
