Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Breadcrumbs on July 19, 2011

    p. 147 - Mario notes that chicken can be used in place of Guinea Hen so that’s what we did. My chicken breasts were on the bone vs MB suggested boneless version but, this didn’t seem to have any detrimental impact as this was a delicious, bright tasting grilled chicken dish. The recipe calls for 1/2 cup of the wonderful basil Pesto (pg 50).These were really delicious. The pesto mixture was fresh and flavourful and, served to keep the breasts very moist. I spritzed the chicken w some lemon prior to plating. I’d highly recommend this one, we were happy to have extras for weekday lunches!
