We love the just-set creamy texture of a stovetop frittata, but it does make it a little scary to handle. if you aren’t sure about inverting it to get it out of the pan, we have your back. Instead of flipping, transfer it to a 350° oven to finish cooking through.

This recipe is inspired by Gado-gado, a colorful and crunchy Indonesian salad, made with a wide array of raw and cooked vegetables (and sometimes noodles). The dressing is usually peanut-based, but we used cashews. Feel free to try another tender nut such as pistachios or pecans instead.

Roasting at a lower temperature means that no part of the chicken is likely to overcook and get dry when the leftovers are shredded, making it ideal for using throughout the week.

Make a double batch of the tahini-honey sauce at the beginning of the week to use on salads, as a dip for crunchy vegetables, or drizzled over seared salmon.

You can keep the herbs, sauce, and noodles separate, or combine them all in a bowl like we did.

Raisins in your pesto?!? We promise that they deliver the right amount of sweetness to complement the lamb.

Think of this as the weeknight version of a classic Italian porchetta—it's not traditional, but it sure is delicious.

Some of us still have nightmares about bad puréed black bean soups that were once a “thing.” Creamy puréed pinto beans, chiles, and lots of mix-ins set this soup on the right path.

The Topanga Living Cafe in Topanga, CA, inspired this gluten-free quiche that uses caramelized sweet potato instead of dough.

This weeknight-friendly pasta uses one skillet, one pot, and plenty of cheese.

Strange as it may sound, and although it is surely not the healthiest way to cook broccoli, do give this a try. You will be amazed at how even broccoli can become what tastes like an indulgent, olive oil–laden, garlicky treat.

The assignment: A satisfying, creamy, crave-worthy baked pasta that would still be delicious without (most of) the cheese. Nailed it!

This briny, bright sauce is just what you need to liven up almost any kind of fish.

The squid only takes 3 minutes to sear for this simple salad.

A super simple red sauce lets the shellfish shine—say that 5 times fast.

The honey lends a sweet, caramelize-y twist to this quick curry, but if you want to up the heat, add a big pinch of cayenne pepper. Have some thick, crusty bread handy to scoop up all the extra sauce, or serve alongside a pile of rice for a low-maintenance comfort food dinner.

The noodles are just a vessel for this savory, gingery, simple weeknight sauce. Double the batch, and you’ll always have a way to brighten up simple grilled or pan-roasted chops, roasted veggies, or grain bowls.

Because you need more butter-roasted things in your life.

If you trimmed any excess fat off the steaks, render it slowly over medium heat and use in place of the oil.

Every Christmas Eve, chef Renee Erickson goes crabbing with her family and friends—then they make this simple and decadent pasta.

Build big flavor quickly with condiments that are already in your fridge.

For the holidays, Meherwan Irani makes this centerpiece-worthy crown roast with black peppercorn, fennel seed, and cumin.

A roasting trick for weeknight chicken yields juicy meat and golden, crispy skin.

Ask for the point cut, which is the fattier end of the brisket. It’s more tender and especially delicious.
