This is a variation of a recipe my mother taught me after I got married and wanted to make Filipino food for my husband.

Margo's Chicken Adobo

Use equal parts vinegar, soy sauce and water. The secret ingredient is cinnamon. This can also be made in the slow cooker: after browning chicken, onion and garlic, transfer to slow cooker, add the rest of the ingredients, and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or 4 hours on high.

Chef John's Hot and Sour Soup

This hot and sour soup is almost always served as an appetizer in a Chinese restaurant. Yes, it's hot, and yes, it's sour, but it's also so much more, and other than a little bit of slicing and dicing, this is relatively quick and easy to make. Add some pork to this, or some little fun-sized meatballs for a fantastic meal. Serve with extra sliced green onions on top.

Got No Beef Stew

Got no beef? That's ok, because I am going to show you how to make something that looks like beef stew, eats like beef stew, and kinda sorta tastes like beef stew without having to use any beef. And whether you're making this because beef is just too expensive, or you are trying to cut down on the amount of beef you eat, or you just enjoy bad grammar — no matter the reason, I really do think you're going to enjoy this! Serve with buttered bread.

Chef John's American Goulash

American goulash was one of my all-time favorite comfort food meals when I was growing up. They served it in my school cafeteria alongside a slice of buttered white bread and a carton of milk. This Americanized version of goulash was invented to stretch a small amount of beef into enough food for a not-so-small family. It's a simple dish that doesn't taste simple, so it's perfect for your weeknight dinner rotation.

Chicken Noodle Salad

Get ready to make all sorts of friends when you bring a big bowl of this Asian chicken noodle salad to the next big cookout. The only folks you might scare away are the ones who brought regular pasta salads. There's just something delightfully addictive about this special combination of cold and spicy. This recipe is the perfect catchall for all those summer vegetables we're supposed to be eating more of, as well as any dry leftover chicken you have around.

Smashed Cucumber Salad

This smashed cucumber salad is one of my all-time favorite cold summer side dishes. By crushing our cucumber before we cut it, we produce flavors that un-smashed cukes can't. The only decision you're going to have to make is how long to let the cucumbers marinate — half an hour or so or not at all. Perfect with grilled meat or shrimp.

Baked "Fried" Rice

This easy oven method for baked "fried" rice produces something very similar to classic fried rice, but you don't need leftover rice to make it. Just like rice pilaf, the grains of rice get coated in fat before absorbing the cooking liquid, ensuring plump, tender, separate grains with no sticky clumps. If using a different kind of rice or pan size, just adjust the cooking time. Garnish with green onions and serve with a runny poached egg on top if desired.
