The slightly sweet and lemony dressing is easy to make, and youâll want to have extra on hand to pour it over everything.

6Tomato-Butter Roast Chicken
PHOTO: LUCY SCHAEFFER; FOOD STYLING: MAKINZE GORETomato butter works wonders on chicken. Not only does it keep the bird moist, but the healthy dose of tomato paste brings a slightly sweet, umami acidity, which chicken could often use. Plus, there are no better veggies than ones that have been roasted underneath a chicken, collecting all of that flavor-packed schmaltz. This is a great way to add some excitement to a classic roast chicken this Christmas.

Pork makes it extra hearty, so we served it over creamy polenta, but feel free to sub in pasta, rice, or whatever else you can dream up.

13Cheesy Kale Orzo With Herbed Bread Crumbs
PHOTO: RACHEL VANNI; FOOD STYLING: MAKINZE GOREOrzo is a magical pasta shape. You can boil it, of course, like pasta, use it as a stand-in for rice, or cook it like risotto. Here in this cheesy kale orzo recipe, we opt for the creamy risotto method, then top it with crunchy herbed bread crumbs for added texture. The orzo soaks up the cheese sauce, and you get an incredible sauce to pasta ratio with the small pasta bits and multitudes of creaminess in every bite.
