5Delicious, healthy, easy  May 20, 2008
I love this book! It gives the prep time and the cooking time for each recipe. It lists the nutrition values (calories, fat, protein, etc.) and seems to consist mainly of fairly healthy choices. And the recipes are delicious and generally easy.

I've made the Chicken Enchiladas and the Chicken Stuffed with Basil and Sun-Dried Tomatoes. The last was SO fast and easy I plan to put it in regular rotation (and I've made it twice this week alone). The enchiladas were delicious and a big hit, although a smidge more work.

Great ease of use and great ideas in this book.

5Chicken for supper! Come and get it!  Dec 25, 2007
I bought this cookbook at a school book fair and have never regretted it. What a fantastic and easy guide to chicken preparation and presentation.

I like this particular book for a number of reasons. I love the size (9 1/2' by 7"), the glossy pictorial hard covers, and the spiral-bound pages. This last point allows the book to remain open while in use. No heavy objects on one side to keep it open while the cooks uses the other. There are glossy photographs for about every four to five recipes. I like one for every recipe, but this is second best with plenty of photos.

Interspersed throughout are boxed in tidbits or instructions for specific tasks. Examples of instructions: carving a roast chicken, using garlic, storing fresh herbs, to skin or not to skin, and cutting up a raw chicken. Experienced cooks may brush this last one by, but they all had to learn somewhere.

And, of course, the recipes. Zowie!! There are the standards: classic fried chicken and grilled chicken breasts. However, GH presents some new and interesting recipes and twists on old. Try this yummy dish: Grilled Chicken Breasts Saltimbocca (means "jump in your mouth") and is made by adding a slice of prosciutto and a fresh sage leaf to each breast before grilling.

The book offers a number of international dishes. Try Chicken Mole, a Mexican dish with dried chilies, spices, seeds, and unsweetened chocolate, served over rice. Another great one is Moroccan-Style Tagine, a savory stew with chicken, spices, dark raisins, green olives, and served over couscous. Still another is Thai Chicken Sate, a dish found everywhere in Bangkok from vendors cooking and selling their wares on the streets. It is chicken pieces skewered and grilled and served with a dipping sauce made of coconut milk, soy sauce, peanut butter and a side dish of pickled cucumbers. Oh, heavenly!

This is one of those cookbooks the busy person cannot do without. The only trick is having ingredients on-hand before beginning to cook. The rest is easy and oh, so tasty!
