Shelli's Staff Pick

Head of Adult Services, Shelli, stated that another one of her favorite cookbooks from our collection is, The Chicken Bible: Say Goodbye to Boring Chicken with 500 Recipes for Easy Dinners, Braises, Wings, Stir-Fries, and So Much More. She said she chose this for her staff pick because “Chicken is a staple in our household, but it was getting boring and repetitive. That's why I turned to The Chicken Bible. I am not usually very brave with new recipes because I don't want to worry about wasting time and food if we don't like it, but there are several recipes in this book that call for basic seasonings but still add a twist to the standard chicken breast. Using this book, I can have chicken as my main protein three times a week, but still feel like I have had three distinctly different meals. For example, the book gives a recipe for chicken chimichangas on page 102, chicken stir fry on page 204, and baked ricotta chicken on page 255. These are a few of my favorites”. This cookbook is certainly a favorite among our patrons, and with no surprise, it has five stars on Amazon. This is just one of many books by America’s Test Kitchen; some others include:

  • The Ultimate Meal-Prep Cookbook: One Grocery List. A Week of Meals. No Waste.

  • The New Cooking School Cookbook

  • The Complete Plant-Based Cookbook: 500 Inspired, Flexible Recipes for Eating Well Without Meat

  • The Best Simple Recipes: More Than 200 Flavorful, Foolproof Recipes That Cook in 30 Minutes or Less

  • The Complete Cooking for Two Cookbook: 650 Recipes for Everything You'll Ever Want to Make

  • The Best of America’s Test Kitchen 2022: Best Recipes, Equipment Reviews, and Tastings

If you like Shelli’s recommendation, or if any of the other titles listed above catch your eye, Bremen Public Library has 16 other books by America’s Test Kitchen that can be found in both the Children’s Room and the Adult Department.
