This review is from: Simple Essentials Chicken (Hardcover)

This is a great cookbook except that it repeats a lot of recipes from other Donna Hay books. If you have only one or two Donna Hay cookbooks and love chicken then get this book. If you already have a collection (I have about 6) you will still get some new ideas but maybe buy the book, have a look through it and if you don't see enough new recipes you want to try, give it as a gift. It made a great gift along with the salad and vegetables book for a friend of mine who doesn't eat beef or fish so is always looking for new ways to prepare chicken. I ended up keeping the book AND ordering a 2nd copy as a gift. The recipes are great, and despite having many of them in other books, I like having them all in one place so I am not flipping through multiple books looking for one random chicken recipe. As always, Donna Hay's books have beautiful photography and a picture to go with every single recipe. Plus there is lots of info about different cuts of chicken and the recipes are organized by cooking method. I have already tried the harrissa yogurt baked chicken, the chicken mint rice noodle salad, the lemon grass ground chicken in lettuce cups, and the chicken lemon pasta- all are delicious.
