Crossword Genius

Stylish range in yellow (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chicken

'yellow' is the definition.
(as in cowardly)

'stylish range' is the wordplay.
'stylish' becomes 'chic' ('chic' can be similar in meaning to 'stylish').
'range' becomes 'ken' (I've seen this in other clues).
'chic'+'ken'='CHICKEN'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for chicken that I've seen before include "Reckless game" , "Bird, coward (colloq.)" , "daring game" , "Cowardly (colloq.)" , "youngster" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
