I always poached chicken when I needed cooked for a recipe - and I never liked the way it came out. I tried it and it was the most moist chicken I have ever had. I used it in chicken noodle soup - YUM. The recipe can be increased or decreased depending on how much cooked chicken you need. UPDATE 7/31/07 - I tried this method on boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it worked great - I baked for about 35 minutes and it was cooked perfectly. Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts, bone-in and skin on |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
salt, to taste |
pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Place chicken breasts on baking sheet with sides (to catch the grease), skin side up.
2. Rub olive oil on breasts, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
3. Bake at 350ยบ for 45 minutes.
4. Cool, then chop or slice to use in your recipes.
