His vision is bold, but strikingly unpretentious: many of the dishes in \u003ci\u003eA Great American Cook\u003c\/i\u003e—like the Shrimp BLT, Crispy Chicken and Goat Cheese Burritos, and Gingerbread with Brandied Plums—are free-spirited plays on classics, and his “less is more” philosophy animates suppers like flash-seared scallops on caramelized onions and chicken cooked under a brick with a sauce of rosé wine, bacon, and peas. From a versatile vegetable dish that goes with nearly every main course to handmade pastas with delicate sauces to a foolproof way to cook salmon, Waxman gives you all the techniques and recipes you need for simple, sophisticated cooking at home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47107113976048,"sku":"9780547416434","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780547416434_p0.jpg?v=1763715519","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780547416434","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
