Notes about Recipes in this book

• Rotisserie chicken beans (aka the only thing that Tyler Kord would eat if left to his own devices)

  • Ladyberd on October 25, 2023

    Comfort on a chilly day. This is super easy. The lime and a little Tabasco made it pop.

  • Jviney on January 23, 2020

    This was really good! The lime juice and Cholula hot sauce set it apart from your standard chicken soup in my opinion, although my husband had little lime juice and no hot sauce and loved it. The house smelled amazing all afternoon, Rancho Gordo cassoulet beans were lovely in it.

• Grilled chicken with pickled blueberry salad

  • julesamomof2 on June 01, 2020

    This was delish and really pretty on the plate as well. Also much easier to pull together, as long as you prep the blueberries ahead of time. I did marinate the chicken in some olive oil and lemon juice for a few hours to add some additional flavor. This one is company - worthy.

• Speedy chicken chili

  • averythingcooks on February 02, 2020

    I'm not sure what it was but I did not like the texture of this chili. I hand cut the thighs into pretty small chunks (certainly between 1/4 & 1/2 inch) as directed. The "sauce" was silky & rich and - yes - I did add corn and black beans (as I usually do re: chili). I make (and love) lots of different chicken chilies but I just don't think I liked the texture of the little chunks of chicken thigh. I will certainly make the sauce again....maybe with a ground beef / sausage base next time.

• Farfalle with chicken, broccoli & all of the herbs

  • Jviney on December 31, 2023

    This one wasn’t for me. The herbs were overwhelming and three tsp of salt made it too salty. It felt like the pasta and chicken got lost in all the chopped herbs.

• Chicken & black-eyed pea stew with smoked paprika

  • wkhull on January 09, 2023

    If I cooked a chicken thigh on high heat on my stove for 7-10 minutes it would be blackened/potentially combust. If you have one of those stove tops, try medium heat and check at 5 minutes. I also do not know what planet/altitude dry BEPs cook in 45 minutes. Aim for 1 1/2 hours and be pleasantly surprised if they finish earlier. I subbed canned tomatoes, increased the peanut butter, and added mushrooms and sweet potatoes. At the end I shredded the chicken into the stew and wish I had removed the skin to make it healthier. (I did not rate this recipe since I made so many changes.)

• Chicken toast with buttery apple jam

  • zacharyzachary on July 01, 2024

    This recipe is bonkers, yet it somehow works. My wife loved this, and my kids even ate it. Doubling the apple jam recipe would be a good idea, because it’s super good on crackers.

• Creamy chicken baked pasta with cabbage

  • DFarnham on August 19, 2021

    Tasty and simple. We recently lost our dear old pooch, and have been quite grief-stricken. I found this recipe randomly, in the chapter "chicken to eat when you are sad." I am still incredibly sad, but this is definitely a recipe that does not take a lot of brain power, and the result was delicious. Exactly what we were looking for. Definite keeper.

• Roasted drumsticks with Brussels sprouts, fennel and jalapeño

  • DFarnham on January 12, 2021

    This was good, super easy. A couple of notes: Made this twice. Using thighs, not drumsticks. The salt feels like a lot but necessary to make a nice crisp skin. Because thighs take a little longer, I started them skin-side down then flipped them half-way. Need to watch brussels so they don't burn due to longer cook time. The second time I added a sprinkling of Aleppo pepper to the thighs. Delicious and satisfying dinner.

• Broiled chicken thighs with plum tomatoes & garlic

  • foodgloriousfood on April 07, 2022

    I doubled this recipe for a family dinner and even so the chicken was ready before the recommended 45mins. I then removed the chicken before putting the tomatoes under the broiler (recipe recommended broiling all together but my chicken was already perfectly crispy) The broiled tomatoes cooked in the chicken fat with the fish sauce and white wine vinegar is incredible! I use cherry tomatoes and add heaps more than the recipe calls for and you will be glad of that because the tomato schmaltz smeared on crusty bread is to die for!

• Spiced chicken schnitzel

  • ethedens on December 19, 2023

    Very good. Would make again.
