Spicy Avocado-Cucumber Soup

Spicy Avocado-Cucumber Soup
Go to Recipe

This tangy, luscious soup is an excellent make-ahead dish: Simply puree everything except the garnish, then chill. For a milder version, scale back on the serrano.

Pairing: Lively, refreshing Grüner Veltliner: 2009 Berger

This dish from Uxua hotel chef Aladim Alves traces its roots to the 1970s, when the beaches of Trancoso, Brazil, were a favorite hippie destination. It combines richly flavored Bahian seafood with healthy whole-grain black rice.

Pairing: Bold, berry-rich Spanish rosé: 2009 Tres Ojos or 2009 Artazuri

Chicken Legs with Roasted Garlic–Ancho Sauce

Chicken Legs with Roasted Garlic–Ancho Sauce
Go to Recipe

Here, Marcia Kiesel uses only five ingredients, including pleasantly bitter ancho chiles (dried poblanos), to make a luscious sauce that you'd swear has butter in it, even though it doesn't. The secret is the slow-roasted garlic, which becomes wonderfully silky in the blender.

Pairing: An oak-spiced Chardonnay: 2007 Santa Ema Reserve

Grilled Lamb Chops with Ladolemono

Grilled Lamb Chops with Ladolemono
Go to Recipe

Michael Psilakis dresses these luscious lamb chops with ladolemono, a supersimple Greek sauce of lemon juice and olive oil. The sauce is often spooned over fish, but it's delicious on meat and vegetables, too. "This is real Greek cooking," he says.

Pairing: A Greek white: Assyrtiko
