    This tasty chicken recipe by Bobby Flay is a unique combination of chicken and spices. The fact that this recipe can be made throughout the year, makes it an even better dinner idea.

    You may be asking what in the world is Brick Chicken? Brick Chicken is basically chicken under a brick. Nothing fancy or exotic about it, just chicken that has a brick on top of it. It may also be referred to as Brick Pressed Chicken.

    If you haven't had the opportunity to ever try chicken prepared like this, it's really something you must try. If you enjoy chicken recipes then I think this dish will definitely become a favorite!

    Have you watched Bobby Flay on t.v. before? If so, then you know he is a wonderful cook. He prepares dishes that are out of the box, yet very easy to prepare in your own home.  He recently partner with Clarkson Potter and created the cookbook, "Bobby at Home".

    Here is a little bit about the cookbook, "Bobby at Home" and Bobby's inspiration behind the recipes:

    With 165+ recipes, Bobby Flay opens up his home and shares his bold, approachable style of cooking for family and friends, along with his no-nonsense, essential advice for home cooks.

    Welcome to Bobby's, where powerhouse flavors rule the day. In his most personal cookbook yet, Bobby shares over 165 bold, approachable recipes he cooks at home for family and friends, along with his well-earned secrets for executing them perfectly.

    Everyday favorites--from pan-seared meats and hearty pastas to shareable platters of roasted vegetables, bountiful salads, and casual, homey desserts--go bigger and bolder with Bobby's signature pull-no-punches cooking style. Expect crowd-pleasing classics taken to the next level with exciting flavors, such as Spanish-style shrimp and grits, pumpkin pancakes with apple cider syrup, and sticky-savory-sweet Korean BBQ chicken.

    Riff on go-to dishes just as Bobby does with his master recipes for essentials, along with creative variations that take the base recipe in a range of directions to suit your mood, such as crispy bacon glazed with pomegranate molasses, deviled eggs topped with fried oysters, and mussels steamed in a heady green curry broth.

    With Bobby by your side, cooking at home just got a lot more exciting.
