Not a single bland dish appears in this outstanding chicken cookbook by acclaimed food writer and Telegraph columnist Henry (
A Change of Appetite). Complemented by gorgeous photographs, her recipes (e.g., Mexican chicken and pumpkin with pepita pesto, Vietnamese caramelized ginger chicken, Indian-spiced chicken with cilantro chutney) feature a wide range of tastes, textures, temperatures, and preparations. None is overly complicated, but because the recipes feature numerous international ingredients (e.g., tamarind paste, palm sugar, Shaoxing wine), they require some preplanning. Budget-friendly and flavorful chicken thighs are Henry's favored cut, but she also uses breasts, legs, whole chickens, and squabs.
VERDICT Whether herbaceous, aromatic, sweet, or spicy, these new chicken dishes promise to reinvigorate even the tiredest taste buds.
