Marinate chicken thighs in a creamy spiced yogurt mix before roasting until golden brown. If you want a fresher take on the spice, swap out the bottled curry powder in favor of your own homemade spice blend. Serve with a paneer and broccoli masala for a simple dinner that’s way better than takeout.
Coffee helps with multitasking, and this cake brings on the java in many forms. Espresso powder helps form the crumb topping, coffee liqueur gives a double-punch buzz to the creamy glaze, and the sweet swirl throughout plays the bitterness of coffee against semisweet chocolate. We’re now calling it #shakingsaturday.
This simple salad balances your garden variety vegetables, like carrots and little gem lettuce, with a whipped lemon cream dressing for a light lunch. Toasted hazelnuts offer a crunchy finishing touch.
Like finding true love and constructing model train kits, a truly good lasagna takes time. This three-layer beaut combines steamed spinach, a sausage-based tomato sauce, and a spoon-licking-good ricotta-basil filling for a baked pasta that’s crispy on the edges, gooey in the middle, and precisely what you need most on this February weekend.
Brunch can be a chance to celebrate with friends, or to recover from last night’s overindulgences (in which case, drink this!). If there’s one brunch dish that bridges both needs, it’s chilaquiles—crisp tortillas baked in a spicy tomato sauce and topped with a runny fried egg and a showering of cilantro, radishes, and creamy Mexican cheese.
Creamy meets crunchy in this take on the classic fried chicken cutlet. After frying, the thin cutlets are drizzled with a homemade ranch dressing made with parsley and Maggi seasoning (a savory seasoning sauce). Garnish with radish slices and cucumber ribbons for extra crunch.
