Bone-in Chicken Breast

Recently, I've established the good recipe for baked skin-on bone-in chicken breast (halves).


You can season it before baking with poultry seasoning, or salt+pepper+herbs, etc. The key is temperature and time; pre-heated 120C (250F) for 1 hour, uncover, then broil til skin gets gold brown. Let it sit for 10-15 mins before cut.

Sometimes you can find big 3 split chicken breasts for $3 in Kroger. You can buy 4-5 packages of them, put them in ziplock bag individually and freeze them (writing down the date on the bag with permanent marker will help organizing). It will be easy cooking if you sprinkle seasoning before freezing; you just need to thaw and toss it in the oven!

For juicy boiled chicken breast, key is 1)cook little bit short time and make it cook thru by left-over heat of water and 2)cooling/keeping meat in the boiled water. When you keep it in refrigerator, keep meat in ziplock bag with water boiled chicken; this way you can save space. Cut them up toss on the salad, and chicken salad is done!
