While turkey is arguably the center of attention at dinner, Thanksgiving side dishes are just as important. Sidesgiving is all about creative riffs on the classics. Like a lush kimchi and squash mac and cheese, flaky parathas layered with brown butter and sage, or spicy cauliflower studded with cashews and fresh herbs. And for the traditionalists among us, there's Thanksgiving stuffing, sweet potatoes, green beans, and brussels sprouts. Here you’ll find our best Thanksgiving side dishes.

This foolproof ultimate Thanksgiving turkey recipe produces a holiday centerpiece that is excellent in every way other whole turkeys often fall short: It’s full of flavor and juicy as heck, thanks to an easy dry brine. And cooking the turkey on a rimmed baking sheet, not in a deep roasting pan, is great for all-over browning—just be extra careful as you remove it from the oven so that the drippings don’t slosh over the sides.

The key to a breezy Thanksgiving is to do absolutely everything you can ahead of time. This stuffing recipe requires as little day-of labor as we could manage. Most stuffing recipes can be made at least partially in advance, but this recipe leans even more heavily on the day before so you get the flavor benefits of slow-cooked ingredients without the time crunch, and you don’t need to stress about finding using your oven on Turkey Day.

Here is something that any cook can do to completely transform how they roast Thanksgiving turkey: Roast it in parts. Roasting a broken-down turkey in parts has distinct benefits over roasting a whole bird. It promotes deeper browning, enhanced fat rendering, and crispier skin because the oven’s heat can hit more surface area, faster. That means cooking and resting times are greatly reduced. It's the best and easiest way to to get a delicious turkey on the table in way less time. Thanksgiving Turkey, Whole Turkey, Turkey Parts Recipe, Turkey Pieces, Turkey Glaze, Dark Meat

This is the best easy Thanksgiving stuffing recipe. And yes, while we refer to it as a bread stuffing, it’s technically more of a dressing because it’s cooked outside of the bird in a separate casserole dish and not inside the cavity of a turkey.

If you're going to make one Thanksgiving turkey this year (if any at all), please let it be this one. Yes, this recipe involves breaking down the bird into parts before roasting, which means removing the legs and wings and part of the backbone so the turkey can lie mostly flat on a large rimmed baking sheet. This method may sound tedious—we promise it’s easy to do following our step-by-step, or you can ask your butcher to do it—but it has many benefits. New Recipes, Homemade Desserts

Fried chicken makes for a natural, crowd-pleasing swap for roast turkey on your Thanksgiving table. It’s done entirely on the stovetop, which frees up oven space for the rest of your menu, and is a classic counterpart to many traditional sides (looking at you, mashed potatoes and biscuits). Give your crispy, crunchy chicken a festive angle by adding sage and thyme to the dredge and making a quick cranberry-mustard sauce for dipping.
