Crispy Baked Chicken Flautas

Take taco night to the next level with this weeknight spin on cheesy, crunchy flautas. After stuffing them with a smoky, spicy ground chicken-chipotle mixture, we skipped the traditional pan-frying route in favor of letting them crisp-up in the oven.

Korean Fried Chicken Wings

Korean fried chicken is ultra-crisp, with a thin coating that's very different to the thicker, more crusty coating of American-style fried chicken. To achieve this crunchy coating, we use cornstarch rather than flour, and fry the wings twice. The chicken is finished with a sticky ginger-sriracha-soy sauce, and sprinkled with sesame seeds. Serve with crunchy radish kimchi to cut the richness.

Chicken Tenders with Dipping Sauces

Chicken tenders grill quickly—almost too quickly, resulting in dryness. But not with these skewers, which benefit from a buttermilk brine and a blanket of bacon. Serve them with a choice of two dipping sauces—a creamy ranch and a spicy romesco—that pair nicely with crudités, too.

Spanish Rice

One cook's "Spanish" rice is another's "Mexican." Whatever the name, the result is more or less the same: an orange pilaf-style rice flavored with onion and garlic and flecked with carrot. Tomato paste further tints this colorful companion to all things Tex-Mex.
