This and every summer, grill some chicken. With corn. With peaches. With tomatoes. With abandon! Or don’t: You can still evoke the flavors and smells of the season inside using the stovetop or the oven (or a store-bought rotisserie chicken, when it gets unbearably hot). Below is a sampling of some of the most flavorful summertime chicken recipes New York Times Cooking has to offer. Chicken thighs, corn and okra? All grilled to charred, tender perfection? That’s the kind of […]

At Burnt Bean Co. in Seguin, Texas, you’ll find what you’d expect to find at a traditional Texas barbecue restaurant, including smoked brisket, sausage and potato salad. You’ll also find dishes inspired by co-owner Ernest Servantes’ childhood in Uvalde, west of San Antonio, like menudo, barbacoa tacos and this elotes-flavored corn pudding, one of the restaurant’s most popular side dishes. “It’s like Mexican street corn and cornbread had a baby,” Mr. Servantes said. Don’t worry if the finished pudding has […]
I used to love getting Chinese food takeout as a special treat when I was a child. My oldest son takes after me; he often suggests Asian food when we discuss takeout options. He happens to be a picky eater, so I love the opportunity to learn how to re-create popular menu items at home knowing that he’ll like them. This honey sesame chicken recipe is similar to a popular dish at Chinese restaurants. The chicken is fried […]
“The only pepper I cannot abide is a green pepper,” the cookbook author Nigella Lawson once wrote, aptly calling out the fruit’s bitter, undeveloped flavor. “In an emergency,” she recently told me, “I can eat grilled or pan-cooked green bell peppers, as the heat and char give them a more balanced flavor, but they do really still taste underripe to me.” It’s understandable. Next to its older siblings in blazing red, orange and yellow, the green bell pepper has never […]
Comment on this storyComment Salmon and lentils, one of my all-time favorite food duos, complement each other in every way. Flavor-wise, the lentils’ earthiness tempers the rich, buttery fish; texture-wise, the tiny legumes create an ideal, just-starchy-enough bed to nestle the flaky salmon; and health-wise, together they make a meal that’s packed with nutrients, including plenty of protein, and fiber. In this recipe, the pair is run through the garden and tied together with a ribbon of Dijon mustard for […]
I knew I was on to a good thing when my new test kitchen colleague Katja Tausig started talking about and cooking with feta. For a team whose mantra might well be “Everything’s better with feta!”, her enthusiasm, and desire to dedicate a whole column to this briny, tangy, salty cheese, meant that the fit was complete. So here’s to welcoming Katja and to celebrating feta: crumble it, bake it, blitz it, stuff with it, showcase it. Baked feta and […]
Raspberries are a top-drawer summer fruit that are at their best (and cheapest) between June and October. Part of the rose family, they have a fragrant, bittersweet flavour and soft texture, with the crunch of the pips right at the end. (My very clever ice-cream-making friend Kitty Travers even makes a delicious, refreshing summer drink from the pips that she sieves out of her raspberry creations.) They can, of course, be eaten raw with cream, and work well in a […]
