Title: New Ways to Cook Chicken
Review: My family eats chicken all the time, and we usually fix it one of four ways: marinated grilled, grilled with BBQ, baked with lemon pepper seasoning, baked with BBQ. While those methods are great, they get old, and I was very excited to crack this open for some new recipes. What I've made has been delicious, and I'm expanding my cooking knowledge with easy to follow recipes!

Title: Seem simple and easy to make, but few pictures to inspire you
Review: This book book name: Easy Chicken cookbook evokes an ease of making all these recipes so the 6 chapters should not be surprising:**** Chicken Made Simple**** 5 Ingredients or Fewer**** 30 Minutes or Less**** One Pan**** One Pot**** Pressure Cooker or Slow CookerI have a criteria that when I see a cookbook in a store, that I use whether to buy it or not. I think we all have some system to determine where to spend our hard earned money. This happens to be mine and it has served me well: See this below.1. Does the book have pictures or illustrations of some type to either entice or guide me?2. When I randomly open a page to 10 recipes, are at least 5 compelling enough to entice me to try them?3. Can I buy locally the ingredients of the recipes (letâs face it, we all donât decide to cook something well in advance when specialty items can be ordered).4. How long is the ingredient list? 10 or more items (not including dried spices or salt and pepper) become less likely to be cooked.5. How many steps are involved. This criteria depends on the detail in the steps, if they are simple the list can be longer, if involved, can only go so far before intimidation sets in.6. Finally the ingredients have to be stuff I like. This is not so useful to those of you reading the review, but I will explain when this is a factor below.PICTURES: Not nearly enough for my liking.There are very few pictures in this book of the items within. The book has 142 pages and less than 12 photos. I struggle with the lack of pictures. When we eat, we start by consuming with our eyes first. In another book on Curries, I relaxed this criticism somewhat as a curry is a curry and they tend to all look similar. But that book had more pictures than this one.ON A RANDOM CHECK DO I FIND FIVE OUT OF TEN RANDOM RECIPES THAT LOOK ENTICING: Since I already have this book, Iâve had more time to go through it and can say that at this moment there are 9 post it notes sticking out of the pages, which tells me, it has potential. However looking at these recipes a high proportion are pan seared.1. Creamy Yellow Coconut Curry2. Maple and Mustard Glazed Chicken Breasts3. Crispy Baked Panko and Dijon Chicken Tenders4. Pad Thai with Crunchy Peanuts5. Classic Chicken Piccatta6. Orange Marmalade and Mustard Braised Chicken with Apples7. Spicy Red Curry Tikka Masala8. Pot Roasted Chicken Breasts with Root Vegetables9. Tropical Chicken with Pineapple and Coconut RiceINGREDIENT LISTS ARE SHORT:For the most part the ingredients are not only few, but easily obtainable in the US.STEPS ARE FEW:Of the 9 recipes that caught my eye, the longest list of steps are 7. Most are 6 or under.THINGS I LIKE:Well this will vary with everyone. I had marked these 9 as these were the ones that seemed the most compelling. I tend only to like chicken breasts as I donât like the texture of chicken thighs and I donât like chicken with tomatoes. Chicken Cacciatore is something I canât stand. And Iâm not a fan of enchiladas or the like. So quite a few recipes went by the wayside.IN SUMMARY:While this book does have 9 recipes that I found interesting. There are only a few more that catch my eye. They are just okay. Iâve earmarked these so I would be inspired to cook them. But it surprised me that I really only found 9 things that compelled me to put a post it note on them after paging through the entire book. Had I just manually paged through this book and did my normal quick check of 10 recipes, this book might not have passed my criteria on having a predominance of things I like, but this is mainly due to my food biases and not any other criteria.

Title: good for beginners, approachable recipes in terms of taste
Review: This book is definitely geared toward people who are looking for mostly familiar tastes. There are few exotic ingredients and most of what is included can be purchased at average grocery stores so it works for those who don't have access to ethnic markets. The first section is full of tips for how to handle and cook chicken and should be read by people who don't have much experience cooking chicken or who tend to have issues with it drying out. There are also tips scattered throughout the recipes and I think those should be helpful to beginners as well.I went through the entire book and marked recipes of immediate interest to me and there were a handful. There are definitely recipes of secondary interest as well so I think there is certainly enough variety to appeal to people who want to add more chicken to their diet, but are bored with what they've been preparing. In terms of the balance of recipes, I realize that this is a brief book, but I would have liked more chicken burger recipes. There are plenty of sandwiches, but few recipes for ground meat.I liked that there were some recipes which were styled after popular food which may be inaccessible to people who don't live in urban areas (e.g., schwarma, gyro-style), though the loss of the more sophisticated methods of how these recipes are prepared means it won't taste the same, but just carry some of the essence of them.I didn't mind that there weren't a ton of pictures in the book. There are some at the head of each section to give you some idea, but this isn't a book for someone who wants lavish illustrations. In some ways, it's better not to have a ton of beautifully styled food pictures because you won't feel bad if your results don't mirror what is on the page. All in all, I think this is a good addition to a recipe collection for someone who just wants to shake up their game when it comes to how they prepare chicken. If you're an advanced cook, however, it probably isn't going to bring enough complexity to the game for you, but it does claim to be "simple meals," so that isn't a demerit.
