Two tips for grilling whole fish like a pro: Use two large metal spatulas to make turning it a lot easier, and season the entire fish—we’re talking head to tail and inside and out.

Squid loves the grill, getting crispy-charred along the edges and tender in the middle. For even more punch, pair it with smoky bell peppers and a lemony herb salad.

Adding an entire lemon—skin, pith, and flesh—to the sauce provides brightness and texture. Any bitterness from the pith will be offset by the sesame oil and honey. That balance makes it a super versatile condiment that pairs well with grilled or roasted vegetables and is great as a topping for stews and braises come winter.

Sweet, juicy tomatoes and watermelon are soul mates—and they both need salt, spice, and fat to reach their full potential. Here, a turmeric- and cumin-infused coconut oil provides all of that and more.

This all-green salad gets a kick from serrano, ginger, and just a hint of fish sauce. Keep the melon ice-cold for maximum contrast.

Keep the fat rendered from good bacon in a crock in your fridge. It’ll make this the tastiest cornbread you’ve ever had.

Mid-summer is prime time for zucchini. That means "zoodle" season—if there ever is one—is now. This version tastes surprisingly indulgent, tossed with plenty of cheese, red pepper flakes, and olive oil.

Large, creamy lima beans (sometimes sold as butter beans) are the perfect solution to any meal dilemma.

We can't think of a better large-format meat. A leg of lamb is fatty and flavorful, and its size makes it hard to overcook.

Vegetables that are best served crisp-tender are a great accompaniment to a slow-roasted fish because they will come out perfectly cooked at the same time.

The oat topping channels granola with olive oil, almonds, and maple syrup, while the filling is barely sweetened, instead taking advantage of in-season berries.
