Fifty chicken recipes, each more seductive than the last, in a book that makes every dinner a turn-on. 
 
“I want you to see this. Then you’ll know everything. It’s a cookbook,” he says and opens to some recipes, with color photos. “I want to prepare you, very much.” This isn’t just about getting me hot till my juices run clear, and then a little rest. There’s pulling, jerking, stuffing, trussing. Fifty preparations. He promises we’ll start out slow, with wine and a good oiling . . . Holy crap. “I will control everything that happens here,” he says. “You can leave anytime, but as long as you stay, you’re my ingredient.” I’ll be transformed from a raw, organic bird into something—what? Something delicious.
 
So begins the adventures of Miss Chicken, a young free-range, from raw innocence to golden brown ecstasy, in this spoof-in-a-cookbook that simmers in the afterglow of E.L. James’s sensational Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy. Like Anastasia Steele, Miss Chicken finds herself at the mercy of a dominating man, in this case, a wealthy, sexy, and very hungry chef.  

And before long, from unbearably slow drizzling to trussing, Miss Chicken discovers the sheer thrill of becoming the main course. A parody in three acts—“The Novice Bird” (easy recipes for roasters), “Falling to Pieces” (parts perfect for weeknight meals), and “Advanced Techniques” (the climax of cooking)—Fifty Shades of Chicken is a cookbook of fifty irresistible, repertoire-boosting chicken dishes that will leave you hungry for more.

With memorable tips and revealing photographs, Fifty Shades of Chicken will have you dominating dinner.

Featured Recipe: Dripping Thighs

The way his apron hangs from his hips already has me all wobbly. But as he coats my thighs with sticky liquid I can hardly contain myself. Is it the wine, or is my aroma starting to drive him crazy too? He heats me up fast, it won’t take much too?

He heats me up fast, it won’t take much to finish me off now. His lips quirk up to a smile. My own juices are mixing with the coating and running all over the place. I get the strangest, sweetest, hedonistic feeling up and down. It’s epicureanism run wild!

He spreads my thighs out on a plate. Sticky hands and at least five wet napkins. What will the housekeeper think? Who cares?

Ingredients
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, patted dry with paper towels
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon plus pinch coarse kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon honey
Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. In a large bowl, toss the chicken, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper together.

In a small saucepan, simmer together onion, wine, bay leaf, cinnamon stick, and a pinch of salt until most of the liquid has evaporated, 15 to 20 minutes. Toss in the honey and butter.

Spoon the mixture over the chicken and toss well. Spread thighs, onion mixture, and any juices onto a baking sheet. Bake until chicken is no longer pink and onions are meltingly tender and caramelized, about 25 minutes.

Review

“Will undoubtedly become one of America's most cherished cookbooks of all time.”—Eater
 
“Like any good parody, this manages to make fun of both the flabby porn of Fifty Shades and the gushing language of ‘food porn.’”—Bon Appetit

“This genius little tidbit that combines the sexual and the culinary,”—Glamour
 
“All signs indicate that Fifty Shades of Chicken, a new cookbook parodying erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey, is the real deal. We can't get over the hilarity of the description on the book's web site.”—HuffPost

"The book that spawned ‘mommy porn’ has now given a new meaning to playing with your food. . . You’ll never look at chickens the same way again."—Salon

"Besides clever writing with laugh-out-loud double entendres, Fifty Shades of Chicken offers 50 (of course) tempting recipes, among them Crunchy Chicken Parmesan Croquettes and Cranberry Baked Chicken With Apple Cider."—The Republic

A delicate mix of the sexual and the culinary
This was my purchase for the yearly White Elephant gift exchange with my fiance's family. They are a little more conservative than I am and this was the perfect amount of risque' and made for a great gag. The book is well put together, the images and recipes are great and it is cleverly written. It does a remarkable job of poking fun at both the flabby porn of Fifty Shades and the silly language of food porn.I purchased a second copy for myself. This is the second novelty cookbook in my collection.If you enjoyed Thug Kitchen's 'Eat Like You Give a *#$%' you will surely love 'Fifty Shades of Chicken' as it is the real deal.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delicious, decadence and . . .
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2013
Verified Purchase
I have made a couple of the recipes in this book so far and they have all been incredibly delicious. I am struck by the amount of recipes that do not ask me to go buy lots of strange ingredients that I don't already have (or aren't usually on my shopping list) and meet the picky eating habits of my household. These relatively simple dishes taste like special occasion food and are easy to prepare from the directions. I haven't roasted many whole chickens in my life, but there are so many enticing and accomplishable recipes here that it may become a staple in our culinary repertoire.

Each dish is separated and sometimes preceded with a piece of parodical writing recasting the characters from "Fifty Shades of Grey" as a chef and his ingredient. Occasionally, the parallels take the already sensual act of cooking to a heightened erotic place that is sometimes appropriate and other-times awkwardly reaching. Perhaps the concept of the Chef literally consuming Ms. Hen at the end of each cooking episode is the most apt interpretation of the original source material, but I still find it hard to think about the raw chicken's ecstasy at being roasted as I slide it into my oven.

Some really simple and some a little more complex, but overall, with ingredients that are readily available. I would recommend this book to anyone. It's a great gift to any home.
