Roasted Garlic Chicken Pilaf

Here's a healthy, hearty chicken dish you'll serve again and again. Our roasted garlic and herb flavors deliciously combine with chicken breasts, spices, and veggies.

Green Juice

Chef Hugo Bolanos of Los Angeles' Hotel Bel-Air shared this recipe exclusively with Epicurious. His turmeric-infused green juice features apples, celery, kale, and parsley but it's a flexible recipe, so feel free to experiment with different veggie combinations. Bolanos recommends swapping in Japanese cucumber for the celery, and substituting Swiss chard for the kale.

Fiesta Chicken

The south-of-the-border flavor bursts out of this dish and onto your family's Favorite Dinner list. Let the fiesta begin!

Pulled Corned Beef

This comforting broth has the flavour of home at Easter for me. You'll need brisket or silverside for this recipe, and the cooking process is long and slow, but it makes the meat tender and juicy.

Chicken and Rice Pot Pie

Who doesn't love a flavorful and filling pot pie? Your family will be lining up for seconds when you serve this all-time favorite.

Dublin Coddle

Maureen Butler, Meath: Bridge-playing mother of four As a child growing up in Dublin, we always had this served to us at the end of the week when all that was left were rashers, sausages and potatoes. Everything was put into the one pot and cooked. It was delicious, particularly on a cold winter's day.

Brown Soda Bread

Connie McEvoy, Louth: Retired farmer and craft expert As the eldest of ten, from the age of 12 I would make several cakes of this wheaten bread every Saturday based on my grandmother's recipe. We always mixed it by hand and I still measure it by hand, using four large fistfuls of wholemeal flour and two smaller fistfuls of plain flour.

Orange Mint Julep

This julep riff from Bobby Flay tastes fresh and not too sweet.

Caraway Cabbage Chips with Dill Yogurt

Cabbage is my new favorite vegetable chip—especially sprinkled with toasted caraway and dipped in yogurt.

Creamed Swiss Chard with Lemony Breadcrumbs

Unlike a heavy béchamel, this streamlined cream sauce won't mask the earthy-sweet flavor of the greens.

Nutty Crunch Cookies

If you can't find blanched hazelnuts, simply toast and skin regular ones.

Spiced Labneh

Royal Street Red Beans

The Creole dish of red beans and rice has been part of our cuisine for centuries. Traditionally, ham or pork was served on Sundays, and Monday was wash day. Because the beans could cook on the stove all day, it was the perfect meal to use the leftover ham and free up several hours away from the stove while tending to the laundry. You might even say this meal was one of our ancestors' original slow-cooker recipes!
