It’s the kind of meal that feels so classy and refined, but when you make it at home, it becomes an easy summer dinner to have any night of the week.

Don't forget a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Don't go one more day without trying this technique.

Because the last place I want to be at the end of these warm summer days is standing at the stove.
