“Pho wasn’t a dish you could easily find in Waco until the last few years, so serving it to friends always felt like revealing a best-kept secret. If you can’t find the rice noodles at your grocery store, you can always substitute ramen in a pinch. The finished product won’t be traditional pho, but you will still receive all the warmth and restoration a bowl of pho can give.” — Joanna Gaines, Magnolia Table, Volume 3

There is a large Portuguese community in our area, and this is how I first learned about chicken piri piri. I had this classic dish at a barbecue and fell in love with the combination of spice and acidity. I love to cook chicken, but sometimes it can feel plain. In this version of the dish, the lemon, vinegar, and spices bring so much flavor to the meat, and the use of red pepper flakes instead of the traditional piri-piri chiles makes it easy to put together. It’s a fun recipe to make on the grill, but it’s also simple to make in the oven if you’re feeling like a cozy meal at home, so I’ve given instructions for each method below.

This chicken pot pie is hearty yet nourishing. It highlights the vegetables, which stay bright and colorful. The chicken is poached not roasted, so the broth from the poaching adds depth to the flavor. The pastry is flaky, buttery, and rich, and it is a wonderful way to feed a large group of friends.

In my book, whole-roasted chicken is an essential recipe for any kitchen. There’s something comforting about the smell enveloping you as it roasts. I always add vegetables to cook alongside the chicken to make dinner a little easier – all in one pan, delicious, and hearty. While there’s wide versatility in the veggie selection, parsnips are a good choice because they caramelize to candy-like sweetness when they cook. Rosemary adds an irresistible piney flavor. But the crispy chicken skin is the star. For the best results, it is imperative to season the chicken with salt ahead of time. After buying the chicken, go ahead and prepare it for cooking by salting it. Seasoning ahead of time will allow the salt to penetrate into the chicken, making it more delicious and help retain moisture when roasting.
