Pollo Asado with Confetti Cauli-Rice

This simple Pollo Asado recipe is my version of the traditional Mexican / Cuban slow-cooked chicken dish, marinated in lots of lime & orange juice, & seasoned with spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, and chili powder. What I love about this recipe is how versatile it is – I've served it here with my Confetti Cauli-Rice, though it would also be delicious in a taco using organic corn tortillas or as a protein on a taco salad, with rice & beans, or with sautéed plantains.

HA Simple, Sparkly Summer Pound Cake

Crunching through the snow in Tasmania on the cusp of spring, Thalia Ho looked down and saw a layer of green peeking through the ice. Her first thought: I shouldn’t have worn Doc Martens. Her second: Basil granita. But several recipe tests in, she’d abandoned first the granita (the basil’s fragrance was muted) and then an herby cake (“the delicacy was just ruined in the heat”), settling instead on a sparkling basil sugar piled atop a buttery loaf.

Vegan Strawberry Cake (GF)

This strawberry cake is pure magic. One bite and it shot us straight back to childhood memories of eating hot pink cake at birthday parties. It’s not only fresh and vibrant with strawberry flavor, but also incredibly fluffy and sweet, and each bite is like a flavor explosion in the mouth. We’re talking rainbows and unicorns and happiness on a plate. Whoa. Plus, top with our Vegan Strawberry Buttercream Frosting (infused with real, ripe strawberries), and you’ll be in pure bliss!

Tagliatelle With Corn, Tomatoes, "Onion-Bacon" & Basil

Over the years, we've made this pasta with shrimp, with bacon, and with both shrimp and bacon, and, when the tomatoes and corn are at peak sweetness, it practically shouts summer. Which is to say, it's easy, fresh, and hist notes that you can get only a few weeks a year. I worried about making an entirely plant-based version of it....

Extraordinary Marinated and Roasted Chicken, Potatoes, and Chickpeas

After its stint in the oven, the marinade cooks down to this incredible, sticky savoriness around the potatoes and chicken. And when combined with the crispy bits of chickpeas, tender chicken, and marinade-sodden potatoes, it's heaven on a plate. This is adapted from Elaine Boddy's "Lebanese Inspired Potatoes and Chickpeas" from her lovely blog "foodbod." —Selma | Selma's Table

Classic Chicken Piccata

The flavor of this recipe was absolutely delicious, with a tart pucker from all the lemon and capers that's balanced by a last-minute addition of butter and the fresh brightness of parsley. The shallots get melty as they cook down, making for a sauce that's perfect on its own with the angel hair and even better when you add the chicken
