cut into strips, dip in beaten egg, coat in breading mixture (crushed crackers, a little flour or corn starch, salt, pepper, spices), fry in vegetable oil.

anyways the deliciousness of the chicken breasts rises in proportion to the amount of butter you cook it in. i usually just put some spice on it and throw it in a buttery pan.

marinate in lemon juice, olive oil, thyme and mint. dice and skewer. serve in pita with hummus and veggies.

also "may as well be tofu" is very, very RONG.

i might slice thin and marinade..oh but what to marinade...

hmm perhaps its time to check with the french laundry cookbook..im up for a challenge (biggest challeng: finding ingrediantsin greenpernt...)

typically i buy pieces or legs...boneless breast is really just like tofu..totally depends on how i prep it...and thats where the imagination falters today

yeah what the fuck? chicken breasts are the tits

Mr. Que, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 19:08 (sixteen years ago) link

on the spectrum of tofu to pork they are closer to tofu

bell_labs, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 19:09 (sixteen years ago) link

i guess i could bust out the mini webber and grill on fire escape..

theyre fine, just inferior to more tasty parts

ill say it again, pork is magic

How the fuck is boneless breast "just like tofu"? This is the worst food elitism ever! Just cook the damn things.

pork may be magic but it does tend to take a little more effort to do right than chicken, chicken is right up there with steak and fish on the how-do-you-fuck-this-up scale

sous vide that shit

Do what Tombot said. Or make chicken curry soup.

Simmer chopped lemongrass and ginger and garlic in chicken broth for a good long time, then strain that stuff out. You just wanted to steep the flavor out of it.

Then:
Chicken broth + curry powder (LOTS) + coconut milk + a good spoonful of sambal oelek (chili paste).
Onions
Carrots
Mushrooms
Chicken breast sliced thin
Simmer until the carrots are done.

jerk seasoning is pretty easy to make at home!

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 21:40 (sixteen years ago) link

take what I said above and replace the cumin with allspice, pretty much

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 21:41 (sixteen years ago) link

that's the secret? aws.
