This version comes straight from Scott Conant, and it's proof that a few humble ingredients, treated with care, can turn into something special.

Some nights call for something simple that still feels a little special, and this swordfish is exactly that.

A savory peach-and-bacon stuffing tucked inside a thick, seared pork chop — finished in the oven and served with a glossy balsamic pan sauce. Simple enough for a weeknight, impressive enough for company.

As plums bake, their tartness mellows and their juices jelly — just a couple reasons why they do so well in this crumble, which is essentially an upside-down graham cracker-crusted pie.

Forget everything you think you know about homemade burgers — the smash burger does more with less, and it does it in under 30 minutes. The secret is simple: high heat, an 80/20 beef blend, and one confident press of the spatula that locks in flavor and builds those crispy, caramelized edges.

Halfway between a lazy Sunday coffeecake and a proper dessert — this warmly spiced apple kuchen layers two kinds of ginger with floral honey and finishes under a glossy, golden glaze.
