Best Chicken Recipes by Cook's Illustrated John Burgoyne

The New York Times - Sam Sifton

It seems amazing that Kimball and his elves can keep drumming up subjects for these books, which arrive in the manner of the tides and the moon, but they do…They remain top-form and absolutely terrific for anyone interested in cooking from recipes that always, always work. The reason is simple: Kimball hires good cooks and then treats them like scientists—or factory workers. They test and test again and again and again. Genius in the kitchen arises from baseline competence. In the matter of chickens, this book will provide it.

Judith Sutton - Library Journal

The latest title in this popular series from Cook's Illustrated offers more than 300 recipes for chicken, along with a primer called "Chicken 101," information on techniques (including step-by-step illustrations), and ratings of equipment and ingredients. The magazine's Complete Book of Poultry(originally published in 1999 and reissued in 2002 as The Complete Book of Chicken) included much of the same information and more than 500 recipes for all types of poultry, but most home cooks are always happy to add more chicken dishes to their repertoire. For most collections.
