Twice As Nice: 25 Chicken Breast Recipes for Today and Later
By Sandra Liu / Genre: Quick & Easy, Cookbooks / Rating: 4.6 out of 5 stars (16 reviews)
Liu astutely shows the reader how to save time and money by preparing a larger amount of chicken, and freezing the extras. But unlike other “cook ahead” books, you don’t get stuck eating the same dish over and over. Each time you want to use the chicken, you take out just what you need, and then make a fresh dish from among the recipes provided (and they are tasty!).
Recipes are organized into well thought-out sections on “Salads”, “Soups and Stews”, “Sandwiches, Pitas, or Tortillas”, “Pastas”, “Rice”, and “One-Dish Dinners.” They cover the full range from the quick-and-easy staple (chicken salad sandwiches) to the wow-your-guests spectacle (chicken, rice, and mango lettuce wraps). The recipes for the chicken with red mole sauce and the chicken and chickpea stew are top choices that would each be well worth the price of purchase by itself.
Sprinkled among the amazing recipes and practical tips are surprisingly interesting anecdotes and facts about—what else—chicken.
Twice as Nice is a great read for the foodie who lives hard and works hard, but still craves great home cooking!
