Cooking Chicken Breasts The Right Way

Chicken breasts can arguably be considered the leanest form of animal protein that we can get our hands on. Unfortunately, something happens when we cook such meat — it becomes dry and flavorless, and this makes us ask why. According to Wes Siler, it is because people don’t know how to cook it. He then offers what he calls a “fool-proof method to make delicious chicken breasts every time”. His method involves some olive oil and a few condiments.

These type of recipes slay me. If one does not have the same type of stove and pan as the author, the breasts could be raw in the middle. Less likely they will be over cooked but very unlikely they will be browned. While this is generally a fine way to cook them, a better technique is to first pat them dry and allow them to come to room temperature. Follow the recipe, but test the internal temperature before turning off the heat. If it is not 135F, leave them in, checking every minute. Then let them rest, covered, off the heat.

There's only one way to cook chicken, and that's fried like Popeyes.
