Lamb is an essential—even revered—ingredient all over the globe, probably because it's not only good when it's simply grilled, but also when it's skewered into kebabs, formed into burgers, rolled into spiced meatballs, braised with chiles, and cooked into a ragù with sweet peppers and spooned over spaghetti. And that's only the start. Find these dishes and more in our best recipes for global lamb inspiration.

The Top 7 Best Chicken Sandwiches

1: Chick’n Shack at Shake Shack
This was not even close. Shake Shack's offering had the crackliest crust, the juiciest meat and the best toppings. I especially loved the Martin's potato roll, which is certainly the softest bun around. Instead of a basic mayonnaise, this gets a buttermilk and herb mayonnaise, which lends a tangy freshness to each bite. Shake Shack also understands the importance of pickles, adding extra crunchy thick-cut versions. The catch? Shake Shack doesn't have nearly as many Chicagoland locations as the rest of these competing chains. $6.79

WHY THESE HEALTHY EGG MUFFINS WORK?

There is so much I love about these breakfast egg muffins. Breakfast egg muffins are the perfect on-the-go breakfast because you can make them ahead and store them individually for later use throughout the week (I’ll tell you how in a bit.)

Egg muffins are perfectly savory and very filling. I load mine up  with veggies and whatever meat I might have on hand. This time, for example, I made them using a bit of leftover rotisserie chicken. What else? They ar

It’s a battle of the chicken sandwiches.

A week after Popeyes first nationwide chicken sandwich was released, the fast-food chain started a Twitter feud with chicken competitor Chick-fil-A.

On Monday, Chick-fil-A, which launched a new item of its own last week with its Mac & Cheese, tweeted: ” Bun + Chicken + Pickles = all the (heart emoji) for the original.”

Popeyes retweeted the tweet and wrote “… y’all good?”

The Twitterverse was a flurry with some saying they preferred Popeyes’ new sandwi

Ask a chef and they’ll tell you that flank steak is one of the most underrated cuts of beef. It may not be the first type of steak that comes to mind, but you’ve probably had it at least a few times before. It pops up in everything from Chinese stir-fry to steak tacos, and with good reason. It’s an extremely versatile cut that can easily be grilled, broiled or braised quickly and flavorfully. Plus, it won’t break the bank, like other cuts of meat. (We’re looking at you, filet mignon.) So head

1. Start with flavor-packed ingredients for the easiest-ever marinade.

Rather than calling for a long list of ingredients, this marinade uses ones that do the work for you: namely, chipotle peppers. Chipotle peppers in adobo are jalapeños marinated in vinegar, salt, cumin, oregano, and other spices (read: they’re a flavor powerhouse). You’ll add between a teaspoon and a tablespoon, depending on how spicy you like your fajitas. (Here’s how to save the l

2. Pomegranate-Sumac Chicken with Roasted Carrots

But if you don’t want to roast an entire chicken, marinate just the legs in buttermilk, sumac and pomegranate molasses for a sheet-pan dish that’s easy and delicious.

Jerk is the quintessential flavour of Jamaican food. The exact ingredients vary, but it must be spicy, hot and slightly sweet. Honey provides the sweet; the fruity Scotch bonnet chilli brings the heat. The spices should certainly include allspice, from the beautiful trees that you find all over Jamaica. Plenty of nutmeg is also an essential guest at this flavour party and so is thyme. Vary your jerk according to your tastes and develop your own house special.
