Roast Salmon With Smashed Olives

Salmon is perfect for roasting because it’s such a forgiving fish. The key is salting the fillet ahead of time, which seasons the flesh all the way through and helps it stay juicy, even if you overcook it a little. In this recipe, adapted from my cookbook “Let’s Party” (Union Square & Co., 2025), the salmon is roasted just until cooked then is immediately doused in a floral, herby and briny mix of fresh orange juice, olive oil, roughly chopped olives and parsley, further ensuring that every bite is moist and flavorful.

Turmeric Chicken Skewers With Green Olive Yogurt

These skewers offer a simple yet delicious way to bring the bold flavors of Moroccan cuisine to your table using a handful of spices. But what truly sets this dish apart is the green olive yogurt sauce; the creamy, tangy addition ties everything together. Inspired by the way olives are paired with chicken in Moroccan tagines, this briny sauce balances the warm spices. It's perfect for gatherings but just as great for busy weeknights, and while grilling adds depth, a grill pan works beautifully, too. Serve with a simple tomato salad, roasted or grilled vegetables or flatbread.
