Herbed Cast-Iron Potatoes
These herbed cast‑iron potatoes prove that simple ingredients can deliver big flavor. A quick sear on the stovetop builds a golden crust, while the oven finishes them to crisp‑tender perfection. Sage, rosemary and garlic perfume every bite without any extra effort, making this an easy side you’ll make again and again. Serve them straight from the skillet alongside chicken, steak, pork or anything coming off the grill.
Extra Chocolatey Skillet Cookie
This recipe is sponsored by Ghirardelli. A double chocolate brownie, filled with semi-sweet chocolate chips and crunchy peppermint bark pieces, forms the base of this rich skillet cookie, while simple decorative swirls and circles add a beautiful finishing touch. The Christmas trees on each slice of the skillet cookie come together to make one big snowflake.
French Omelette with Fines Herbes
Everyone should know how to make a classic French omelette. It is one of the first things I teach our young cooks because it takes finesse and technique to do consistently great. This slightly nontraditional version is made on the grill, a fun way to cook your eggs and not hard to master, although you can also prepare it on the stovetop.
