Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
Easy to cook. Boneless skinless chicken breasts aren’t a specialty ingredient; they are readily available and often on sale. Because the meat is boneless and skinless, it’s ready to cut or slice it. You don’t have to remove the skin or worry about bone fragments.
Versatile. The boneless meat is a blank slate, ready to be prepared in any number of ways. Boneless skinless chicken breast can be used in salads, soups, stews, casseroles, grilling, and so much more! You can stuff them, marinate them, roll them, or make them into chicken bites or nuggets. Really, truly, the options are endless.
Healthy. Boneless skinless chicken breast is a lean cut of meat. It’s low in fat and high in protein, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to maintain a healthy diet without sacrificing flavor.
Safety Tips
Thaw frozen chicken breasts in the refrigerator or in a bowl of very cold water to prevent bacterial growth. When thawing chicken in the fridge, place it in a dish in case the package it is in leaks. This will catch any juices.
Always wash your hands before and after handling raw chicken to prevent the spread of bacteria.
Use separate cutting boards and utensils for raw chicken and other ingredients to avoid cross-contamination.
Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to kill harmful bacteria. Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. Eating undercooked or raw chicken can cause foodborne illness.
Refrigerate leftover chicken within 1 hour of cooking, and consume within 3 to 4 days.
