Southern Living's Rotisserie Chicken Cookbook: 101 Hearty Recipes with Store-Bought Convenience

by the Editors of Southern Living

Publisher: Oxmoor House

I’ve mentioned before my Southern background and my love of Southern cooking. So yes, anything by the Editors of Southern Living magazine will be high on my list.

Throw in the word “convenience,” and I’m doubly interested. I would love to cook gourmet meals every night — how fun! And how unrealistic, for me and, I suspect, for many of you. As a result, I often pick up a rotisserie chicken at the grocery store for a quick weeknight meal. But using rotisserie chicken as the basis for other quick (30 minutes or less) recipes? What a brilliant concept for a cookbook.

Southern Living’s Rotisserie Chicken Cookbook: 101 Hearty Recipes with Store-Bought Convenience (Oxmoor House) delivers on the idea. Chapters cover chicken and pantry basics and include “Smart-Shopper Meals,” “Everyday Easy,” “Warm and Comforting, ” and “Weeknight Company” — as well as “On the Side” to complete your meal. Recipes I’d like to try? Pepper and Chicken Nachos, Mexican-Lime Chicken Soup, Vegetable Patch Chicken Salad, Double-Crust Chicken Pot Pie, Easy Chicken and Dumplings, Citrus-Scented Rice with Fresh Basil, and more of course. The cookbook features gorgeous photos of every dish, making the what-to-cook decision delightfully dificult.

Notes: There are six ways to enter the giveaway, but it’s not necessary to do all six entries. Choose whichever one(s) you like, and you’ll be entered in the giveaway. Giveaway ends at midnight (EST) on Sunday, January 13, 2013.

  2. I love to buy rotisserie chicken-they sell it so many different ways at our safeway that it goes with whatever you are making. And lately they are cheaper than buying a whole bird and doing it yourself. This is a great idea for a cookbook!

  22. When I buy a rotisserie chicken, I always keep the bones to make homemade chicken stock. They were slow roasted and give so much flavor.
