boiled chicken losing its nutrients??

[RajaSultan]

okay i don't really know about this and not sure

i boil my chicken and eat the chicken only (i throw the soup away)

people say it loses its nutrients is it true or not??? and before any of you say "why would you boil chicken it tastes like shit" well i know how to make it taste nice so don't go off topic

like i asked can the chicken lose any nutrients??

I eat steamed/boiled chicken all the time. Nothing wrong with that. Doesn't matter how you cook something, you can't burn off the macros. Otherwise you'd be eating calorie-free chicken.

Some of the nutrients do escape the chicken when you boil it, but it's going to mostly be there. I don't know why you'd want to boil the chicken, because, as you said, it tastes like shit.

If you want an easy way to cook your chicken, invest in one of these:

I promise you, you'll be looking forward to meal time if your food came out of that.

I poach chicken
If you gently seal it each side and then cook it slowly in water which is only halfway as deep as the chicken breast you will have a nice juicy piece of. Hi ken with very little nutrient loss.

that's how chinese food is done when chicken is in the meal. Boiled, then steamed to keep hot.

Eh, I'm no fan of Chinese food, but they do more stuff to their chicken when preparing it, beyond boiling don't they?

I think so. Not sure. But I go to this one place that I like I and I see them take the chicken out of massive pots and then shave it into slices. Then they put it on a steamer.
