1Reverse Sear Steak
PHOTO: MURRAY HALL; FOOD STYLING: TAYLOR ANN SPENCERReverse searing, so-called because it starts by cooking the steak in the oven low-and-slow and finishes it over high heat in the pan (literally the reverse of a typical pan-sear process), promises a beautiful, evenly-cooked result with a gorgeously browned crust that will likely be the best steak of your life.

2Chicken Cacciatore

Our modern take keeps that comforting vibe but makes it fool-proof for any home cook. This version brings perfectly tender chicken and a rich tomato sauce to your table every time.

4Cottage Cheese Alfredo

The cottage cheese-based sauce comes together in a blender or food processor in a few seconds, then simmered to thick, velvety, cheesy perfection before getting tossed with fresh spinach and al dente fettuccine.

10Cowboy Butter Steak
PHOTO: RYAN LIEBE; FOOD STYLING: SAM SENEVIRATNENot to be confused with our equally delicious cowboy steak, this recipe calls for searing a bone-in ribeye, then basting it with a zesty, smoky butter until the outside has a perfectly brown crust, and the inside is tender and medium-rare. The best part? The butter comes together while the pan heats up, using pantry staples you likely already have on hand.
