Grilled Mexican Street Corn
A Tex-Mex staple, this craveable side dish from Simply Recipes combines juicy and tender chargrilled corn on the cob with a creamy sauce and a cheese crumble topping. Want to jazz it up even more? Try adding some mashed avocado to your Mexican crema!
Falafel Naan Wraps with Golden Rice
Ever wanted to try making your own naan? Well, here’s your chance. This recipe from Half-Baked Harvest is not as intimidating as it seems—the fresh naan comes together in 30 minutes, and a food processor will do most of the work for you when making homemade falafel. This epic wrap will remind you of the version from your favorite halal cart, but so much fresher.
Grilled Beef Banh Mi
Banh mi is a Vietnamese sandwich filled with griddled savory meat, crunchy fresh vegetables, and spicy sriracha mayo. This recipe from Bakers Royale takes the classic and makes it accessible and doable at home. Don’t overlook the bread here—you want a demi baguette that is crusty on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside.
Thai Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce
Almost every East Asian culture has its own version of satay. This Thai-inspired version from RecipeTin Eats is turned into a full meal with slightly sweet steamed coconut rice and a killer peanut sauce that you’ll want to make again and again.
Green Khachapuri
If you haven’t heard of khachapuri, get ready to meet your new favorite food. This Georgian pastry is a pillowy dough (similar to pizza dough) filled with cheese and sometimes topped with an over-easy egg. We’re craving this version from Food52 that is brightened up with a mix of fresh herbs and scallions. It’s worth it to make your own dough here, but in a pinch, you can use store-bought pizza dough.
Carne Asada Street Tacos
Recreate your favorite street tacos in your own kitchen with this recipe from Damn Delicious! For the best flavor for your carne asada, allow your steak to marinate in the fridge for at least four hours.
