I've made loads of Mexican moles over the past few years, but none that have tasted quite like this one from Zarela's Veracruz. In fact, I'd never even heard of Huasteca-Style mole before. But that's also what I love so much about Mexican cuisine. I've learned about dishes from Oaxaca and Puebla, but still have much to know more about other regions, especially from the northeastern portion of the country. More
Most people who have spent time in the Caribbean have tried jerk seasoning. Jerk is a wet seasoning that most often includes garlic, thyme, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, lime and soy sauce and is most often used on chicken. Some of my favorite memories involving jerk chicken involve a long night at a beach bar, followed by a quick stop at a smoking grill on the side of the road for some spicy jerk chicken to fill me up before bed. Make sure to have lots of beer to serve alongside this chicken. More
One of the great things about spring is that it provides you with a plethora of vegetables that need only brief cooking stints to become delicious. This makes them the perfect companion for a roast chicken dinner. Simply roast your chicken, have your vegetable prepped, then cook them while the chicken rests. All of your food comes out piping hot at the exact same time. More
Schnitzel is often made with pork or veal, but using thinly pounded chicken breasts makes this an ideal lighter main course for summer. The coating of flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs gets crisp and golden in the pan, and the short cooking time produces an extra juicy chicken cutlet on the plate. More
Big Bud's Beer Can Chicken is Fieri's version of beer can chicken, named for his preferred brew for this recipe, all-American Budweiser. The bird is rubbed with a spiced (but not very spicy) blend of oregano, ginger, onion and garlic powder, paprika, and sage, and then set atop a can of Bud popped with a few cloves of garlic. The chicken is placed vertically in the pan and draped with slices of bacon. Since the cooking happens upright, the grease from the bacon drips down the chicken during the cooking, basting it with all of its salty smokiness. More
I was determined to include at least one recipe from Guy Fieri Food that could be construed as vaguely healthy (not that the word "healthy" is in Fieri's vernacular). Our healthy Guy Fieri-approved recipe this week comes in the form of these Chicken Lettuce Cups. Full of diced veggies and Asian-inspired ingredients, these lettuce cups are a big crowdpleaser with caramel-y bites of chicken and crushed, fried wonton skins wrapped up in a crisp leaf of iceberg.

I usually think of roast chicken as a comforting winter meal, especially when served with potatoes that have cooked in all the glorious chicken fat. But there is no doubting that this recipe from Cooking with Daniel Boulud is a spring dish. There is no other time of the year when the combination of morels, fava beans, and small new potatoes would taste so good. More
Can anyone else simply not wait for corn season to start? It's just about upon us, and though I haven't seen any local corn yet, some decently sweet and flavorful stuff has started rolling in from south of the border. I serve mine with some homemade salsa verde (this recipe calls for boiling the ingredients, but I prefer to char them under the broiler until tender—about 20 minutes), a sprinkle of Cotija cheese, a drizzle of Mexican cream, and extra lime wedges on the side.

I never need an excuse to eat more tacos, but this Bobby Flay recipe from the Food Network delivers a lot of flavor without taking too much time. You will need a leftover roast chicken, or you can just pick up a cooked one at the grocery store. Then all you have to do is make the sauce, shred the chicken, and combine the two. It's easy, and the sauce still tastes remarkably complex. More
