Are you ready for another tantalizing recipe from Fifty Shades of Chicken? This is one of my favorites. It was so good! There was just a bit leftover and I had placed it in the fridge, all ready to take to work with me the next day and have it for lunch. Someone ate it. All . I was pissed! Well, mostly thoroughly disappointed because I really was looking forward to enjoying it. Again. And if I had even more, I would've enjoyed it...twice in one day. Or more. The way it's described in the cookbook (in a round about way) is perfect: "I lie exhausted on a bed of rice. He leans over me, tasting me and savoring the juices that are still dripping from me...."Satisfied, Miss Hen?"" This sentence, of course, is written from the chicken's point of view. You will want to clean your plate and go in for round two with these juicy, tender thighs.

This little cookbook, Fifty Shades of Chicken, being a parody and all should really be taken more seriously. If you are a fellow 'Chicken Queen' (or Chicken King), then I highly recommend it. Don't get your panties in a bunch and judge it just because it's full on the best innuendos that can be found in the kitchen! Take it in stride and giggle.....and then totally enjoy the food. I've made several, and they are all delicious. Especially this one! This dish is very easy to do and perfect for newbies. You just have to plan ahead a little as the chicken does need to marinate a bit. But while it's doing it's thing, you can enjoy the intro (each recipe has a fun intro). Here's a tease of a snippet....(although if you didn't read 50 Shades of Grey, this might not be as funny to you). ""Your whole control-freak foodie thing, it was because of her, that woman Mrs. Child." My mood has darkened. "Julia opened my eyes to many important thin...

Ok, so the picture doesn't quite capture the "moment" as depicted in the cookbook, 50 Shades of Chicken. I really need to work on my nighttime pics and get some tips on food styling.  The rated G version of this recipe is called Sauteed Chicken Breasts with Garlic, Olives, and Wine.  The rated R version of this recipe starts off like this: "Suddenly he seizes me and lays me out on the counter, claiming me hungrily. His fingers pull me taut, the palms of his hands grinding my soft white meat into the hard granite, trapping me. I feel him. His stomach growls, and my mind spins as I acknowledge his craving for me." Yes, its as fun to read this cookbook as it is to cook the recipes.  And eat them. So good, so easy. Simple ingredients and very quick.  Flattered Breasts (Sauteed Chicken Breasts with Garlic, Olives, and Wine) Printable Version 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, patted dry 1 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 3 TB flour 2 TB extra virgin olive oil 3 g...

Thighs Spread Wide - Roasted Chicken Thighs with Mushrooms There are some books you can't NOT buy. Fifty Shades of Chicken, a parody in a cookbook, is one of those books. I couldn't help myself. I tried. I glanced, I picked it up...giggled to myself, put it down and walked away. I even got as far as leaving the bookstore and going home. Only to find myself thinking about it. Often. I cook chicken a lot. 90 percent of my dinners are chicken. I have friends who call me The Chicken Queen. So, I think it was meant to be. Destiny. A requirement for The Chicken Queen to possess this particular cookbook. 5 days. I put myself through 5 days of thinking about the book before I realized....YES! I must make it mine. There are 50 chicken recipes. As if I need more, right? But honestly, is it possible to have too many recipes of any kind? Of course the main question is....are they quality recipes. The answer? Yes. Delicious. And so fun to read. I mean when a cookbook starts off with "H...
