Spinach and Feta Pita Bake
This feta and spinach pita bake is tasty, full of flavor, and good for you. It makes a great party appetizer or a full meal. The crunchy crust is what I really like! You can switch up the veggie toppings and cheeses. This is our favorite quick meal.
Chef John's Tandoori Chicken
Tandoori chicken gets its name from the clay oven it is traditionally cooked in, the tandoor. The chicken is marinated in yogurt and an incredibly complex mix of spices, and then roasted in the extremely hot tandoor oven. Don't worry if you don't have a tandoor clay oven sitting in the backyard; a grill will work just fine.
Insalata di Riso (Italian Rice Salad)
Traditional cold rice salad is considered fast food in Italy, used for picnics and lunches on the go. Great for hot days when you don't want to heat up the kitchen. Add a few drops of your favorite hot pepper sauce for a dash of spice if you like. Many Italians add a few tablespoons of mayonnaise at the end.
