Jerry ErricoSometimes less isn't more -- more is more, and nothing illustrates that better than "fancy" dinner recipes. Whether you're entaining guests, or just want an elegant dinner for yourself, we've got ideas from duck to lamb that are impressive and delicious.
Eggplant Tart: This is not actually that fancy, but it looks incredibly fancy thanks to the scallopped edges on the tart, created with half rounds of eggplant.
Standing Rib Roast of Beef with Rosti Potatoes: a standing rib roast is the mac daddy of beef -- it's a proud behemoth on the table. And "rosti" sounds fancy, but it's really just a pancake made from shredded potatoes. Watch Curtis Stone make this recipe.
Spice-Rubbed Game Hens with Rhubarb-Date Chutney: There's just something special about these little birds. And this elegant dish is wonderful for entertaining, as you can make the chutney in advance and prepare the hens the morning or afternoon of the party.
Preserved-Lemon Rubbed Rack of Lamb with Israeli Couscous: Gail Simmons is obsessed with citrus, particularly the bright flavor and slight bitter note of preserved lemons (which are surprisingly easy to make at home!) This recipe incorporates a variety of Middle Eastern foods and flavors, including preserved lemons.
Pan Roasted Salmon with Root Vegetables and Lentil Stew: this is a three-component meal, and each is elegant and flavorful: a delicate roast salmon; sweet beets, carrots, and parsnips; and an herbacious black-lentil stew. (Watch Tyler Florence make this recipe.)
