Savannah Ryan Savor Chicken [Get on Amazon →](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CXLDJ3F8?tag=thefoodieki0f-20&ref=thefoodiekitchen.net) What makes it different from other chicken cookbooks? The fat-forward approach — every recipe specifies not just which fat but why that fat belongs in that dish. Are all 40 recipes seed oil free? Yes. Ghee, tallow, lard, butter, coconut oil, or olive oil only. Savor Chicken is available in Kindle and paperback on Amazon. The techniques in the book are specifically designed for the home kitchen: no combi oven, no sous vide, no equipment that costs more than a good cast iron pan. Every recipe has been tested with the Lodge 12-inch skillet and a standard home oven. If you can make scrambled eggs, you can make every dish in this book. The difference is understanding which fat belongs in which dish and why — and the book explains that explicitly for each of the 40 recipes.
