Inspired by Kevin’s chili con carne on The Office (and we've all been binging that on Neftlix, yeah?), this recipe from Binging with Babish is one you’ll want to make again and again and...

The holidays incarnate. That's what these cookies are to us. They're magnificently and traditionally spiced and are crinkly and chewy. All in the best possible sort of way.

An elegant yet easy approach to roast pork that draws on iconic autumn flavors. And it's as affordable as it is impressive.

It’s quite possible that you already have everything you need for this inexpensive godsend of a pasta supper that tastes far fancier than you’d imagine.

Yes, bourbon-inflected fried chicken. It’s in the brine. And oh, baby, are you gonna wish you’d been doing this all your life.

Shatteringly crisp skin. Tender, juicy meat. And pan juices you're gonna wanna sop up or soak up rather than let a drop go to waste.

Pantry ingredients and barely any effort yield you something that's sweetly tangy and spicy that you'll want to slather on ribs, wings, pulled pork, smoked or grilled chicken, burgers...

A make-at-home version of your fave diner-style burger but with the added smokiness from just the blissful amount of chopped pastrami mixed in with the beef.

Crisp-skinned and sinfully succulent, a grilled whole chicken is the surprise way to go for summer suppers. It'll be the talk of the table.

Let us introduce you to the most Googled recipe of 2019. No, it doesn't have cauliflower. And it's certainly not keto. It's a not-quite-classic shepherd's pie gilded with sweetly caramelized onions and smothered with Cheddar. To heck with tradition.

Store-bought puff pastry makes this elegant baked Brie a cinch to pull off. (But that can be our little secret.)

A traditional Azorean dish that boasts meltingly tender oven-braised beef, potatoes, chouriço, and onions. It's a rustic, homey, Sunday supper sorta dish from my VERY Portuguese mom.

Elegant yet exceedingly simple, this white wine linguine beguiles with its rich, silken flavor despite the absence of cream and a touch of butter.

Bet you already have everything you need for these brownies in your house. Which is a very good thing. (Also sorta a very dangerous thing.)

A dreamy, creamy, pretty-in-pink dessert that casts everyone's favorite berry in a starring role.

For vanilla ice cream purists, nothing competes with a recipe that relies on just the essentials: milk, sugar, vanilla bean, eggs, and cream.

"Best peach pie in the world!" That's what folks are saying about this recipe. We're not going to argue.

Linguine pasta, clams, mussels, langoustines, and shrimp are tossed in a light tomato-garlic sauce spiked with pepper flakes. A simple quick dinner.

We're not kidding about these being perfect French fries. We're also not going to lie to you. Perfection takes time. We swear it's worth the wait.

Jumble together pasta, tomatoes, eggplant, ooey gooey mozzarella, and a splash of cream in just 35 minutes. Jamie Oliver's quick pasta dinner also makes a mean casserole.
