    Marinate in EVOO, soy sauce, honey, garlic, paprika, and a splash of red wine vinvegar. Cook on grill. Omit the honey and limit the EVOO if you're watching your girlish figure.

    ^^^^^^^^^^

    this i also condone

    but if you dont want to leave for hours to marinade then simply get some of the shake on seasoning, cut into slices put in bowl mix around dry just chicken and seasoning and grill

    i like cajun or barbacue, be sure not to overcook, chicken should be moist, once the inside is white its g2g

    if it cut into thin-ish slices it only needs 4-5 mins either side max at medium heat

    I have some thing I have no idea what it's called that you pound on the chicken with to flatten it out some so the outside doesn't get too dry or burn before the inside gets done.

    Yea it's a tenderizer. The way it's pictured it's flat on the bottom so it just flattens out the chicken breasts a little. Or you can unscrew that bottom piece and flip it over so the spikes are on the bottom and really do some damage.

    ^ who told you you could take pictures of whats in my bed side table!

    lol

    *anywho...try putting a breast in an aluminum foil pouch with some lemon juice and pepper, steam than char it up after if you like
    *slice it, heat pan with seasamee seed oil, veggies of your choice (or not)stir fry (with humaun sauce if like)
    *preheat oven 420, get no presevitives sauce(1gram carb only olive oil/tomatoe/seasons basil are in it$4.00) put breast in bake pan, cover with sauce and than some HARD cheese (parm/romano blend is good..the more aged the less carbs)

    grind up raw breast in blender or whatever you have, add oinion/pepper/garlic, seasons..to make any of the following ~
    make chicken meat balls bake in oven, use with tom sauce or just cut in half and layer with hard chese slice basil tomato
    or make into a patty for like a hamburge style
    or use as a taco meat
    or chili meat
    or stuff peppers/jalapanos with it and beans/lentals
    or make stuffed cabbage with it
    or take a jalopino and put hard cheese in it than form the ground chix around it
    or cut eggplant in half, scoop pulp out, mix pulp with ground chix, garlic, onion and stuff the eggplant cook
    or mix ground chix with scrambled eggsall so tastey even my teens love

    Are you going to cook chicken every day? That seems time consuming.

    I buy a whole chicken and roast it in the oven. I use a smaller whole chicken. It's usually pretty inexpensive. I even throw carrots and cubed sweet potatoes in with it. You will need a roasting pan but I would say it is worth the buy.

    Great thread, lots of good ideas. I use EVOO and Adobo Goya. have to go easy on the adobo though cause it has salt.

    I usually bake mine- tons of different spices to use they have a whole section of them at the store. To get it right it's all about knowing ur oven, once you get the time right they come out perfect everytime. For mine, spice em, put on baking sheet and cook at 350 for 22 mins

    One of my favorite ways to cook chicken is wrapped up in foil and baked in the oven.....Lay down a pretty big piece of foil lay 3 or 4 chicken breasts on it....Salt, pepper, oregano, red pepper and a slice of lemon on the top of each....But before seasoning it, use I can't believe it's not butter spray and rub into chicken (Instead of oil)...That will keep it moist, tastes just like butter and 0 calories...

    Once you do that take another piece of foil the same size and put on top of the chicken.....Then crimp the edges of both pieces of foil all the way around 2-3 times until it's completely closed off and no heat can escape...Then put into a preheated oven at 400 degrees and cook for 20 min....Should be done then..tastes really tender when it comes out....

    Yeah chicken is a little tricky because it has to be cooked fully threw due to possible food illness...Unlike steak which you can sear on a high heat and leave medium rare...The trick to grilling chicken is to cook on a medium heat, maybe a tad over..Because if you cook it on a high heat like a steak the outside will get burnt before the inside can cook to a correct temperature...A normal size chicken breast could take about 20 minutes....

    Pounding it out does help because it will help cook the chicken more even and faster....Another trick I like to use is take a thawed chicken breast and put it into the freezer for about 20 minutes...The chicken won't be frozen but it will stiffin up...This will allow you to take a sharp knife a cut thin thin slices of the chicken, almost like bacon strips...And it's pretty much impossible to mess that up..You can lay those thin strips in a pan for like a 1 minute each if that...It will be tender and pretty bombies!!
