Copykat.com's Dining Out At Home Cookbook

the long version

The most widely loved dishes from everyone's favorite restaurants are now as close as the kitchen. This book presents the most popular of CopyKat.com's taste-tested, chef-approved "copycat" recipes for delicious drinks, awesome appetizers, mouthwatering main courses, and scrumptious desserts. With its easy-to-follow format and clear instructions, this book is accessible to even novice cooks, letting anyone amaze their friends, families, and dates with perfectly reproduced dishes. There's no more arguing about where to go for dinner: husbands can enjoy an "Alice Springs Chicken" and "Bloomin' Onion" from Outback Steakhouse, while picky kids wolf down "Chili Cheese Frito Wraps" as if they were parked outside a Sonic. This book covers it all, from having friends over for a happy hour with mozzarella sticks, sliders, and margaritas just like they serve at T. G. I. Friday's to winning his heart with dinner-date classics like the Olive Garden's "Chicken Alfredo" or the Cheesecake Factory's "Madeira Chicken."
