recipe for chicken split breasts?

can_can · July 2011

I have two frozen split chicken breasts (with skin and bone). I want to use them before they go bad, so I'm defrosting them in the fridge.

Anyone have a favorite recipe to share? I have no idea what to do with them (DH bought them on sale a few weeks ago) I'm not handy on the grill, so preferred method of cooking is stovetop/baking/broiling with the oven...

Simmer in chicken broth (water would work if you don't have CB), rosemary, garlic. When done, take out chicken and deskin/debone. Shred chicken and make enchildas, tacos, etc.

Yum!

I like them simple... I just bake them with salt and pepper. The key is to not overbake... I stick them in the oven at 400 for around 45 minutes or so (just until the juices are clear). I cover them with foil for the first 30 min, and uncover for the last 15.

this. sometimes I broil them, right at the end, bc I love the crispy (yes, and fatty) skin.

You could also throw them in a crockpot with a (medium-sized) jar of salsa, and cook on low for at least 8 hours (more, if they are thick). Then shred the meat off the bones for tacos, etc.

You can always cut the meat off the bones and use it for soup, stir-fry, whatever you would normally use chunked chicken for.

Thanks all! We're already doing a fajita dish this week, so I'll try the baking method
