  8. Coat chicken with Marmalade mixture and place in roasting pan
  9. Cook for 45 minutes
We have had quite a few Chicken recipes here at Help! I Have A Fire In My Kitchen. (Click here to see recipes labeled "Chicken). For those who like chicken, (and from experience many children do not like chicken). But chicken is fairly healthy, good for those watching weight, and does not require an "acquired" taste. If you are a meat eater, chicken works well. If you are not an accomplished cook (as most of us are not) - Chicken is a great place to start learning how to cook. Whatever the case chicken recipes seem to be very popular.

This looks great and I, too, am always looking for new ways to make chicken since there is almost always some in my freezer.

If I had all this stocked in my kitchen - trust me I would al

(***Due to layout of this review, if viewed in an RSS reader, certain sections may seem duplicated.) Before we begin, the normal disclaimer. This book review was solicited by the publishers of the Shrek Cookbook and contains my opinion of the book. For kosher readers of Help! I Have A Fire In My Kitchen - This is not a "kosher" cookbook though the majority of recipes in the Shrek Cookbook can be used as is, or with just a few sane and healthy substitutions, can be kept kosher.
