Customer Reviews

Yum!

This soft-cover book contains some wonderful chicken recipes (the chicken tamale pie is my personal favorite). And the photography alone makes you hungry. This is my first "McNair book," but it won't be my last!

Variety for everyone!

I've had my copy of this book for almost 10 years, and I never get tired of the variety that it contains. Face it, we've all become more dependent upon lean protein like chicken, but for many of us, that can get pretty darn boring night after night. McNair has responded to this problem with a broad range of recipes that are guaranteed to please all tastes. (I've never run across the typo mentioned by a previous reviewer, but anyone who cooks on a regular basis should be able to spot such a misprint immediately, if it exists.) McNair's recipes have been able to withstand the test of time in my house, and I'm happily anticipating his next volume--FAVORITES!

Some of my Favorite Recipes

This is a great book filled with some of my favorite recipes, especially "Sweet & Tangy Chicken" (p. 64), "Chicken Scallopini with Mushrooms" (p. 48), and "Chicken Salad w/ Hearts of Artichoke & Palm" (p. 32). Anyone who is into cooking is probably already familiar with McNair's books, and like all his other books, this one also ranks 2 thumbs up!!!
