I marinate mine in Balsamic vinegar and dijon mustard. About a tablespoon of each for a large breast. You could add a small amount of honey also.

Simple brine of brown sugar and salt....then grill over charcoal...wonderful and simple. Nothing else is needed.

Now that being said, I'm not using chicken breast unless forced. Thighs are far tastier and cheaper.

Last time I bought thighs I pretty much ended up with 75% of fat... can't say I'm eager to try them again

Chicken pho. Seriously the best thing if you just want to fill up with food and don't want a bunch of calories.

Also made these chicken fajitas a couple weeks ago and they were so good I literally started moaning when I ate them. I used more onion and more garlic and used Mexican oregano, and just had them on hot corn tortillas with a ton of cilantro and a good extra hot habanero salsa.

Not sure how you got that much fat? I buy boneless skinless and the fat content is nowhere near that level.

Usually I bake a bunch of boneless skinless chicken breasts at the start of the week to put on top of salads or include in other dishes later in the week, it probably helps that I like salad and have a vinegar addiction.

• - italian herb mix on top, and when reheating or about to eat add some salt, pepper and lemon juice
• - jerk seasoning mixed with a bit of olive oil (my partner's favourite)
• - fresh lime juice/zest and black pepper (marinate chicken for 30 mins, then bake)
• - caramelised onion and homemade bbq sauce
• - homemade tomato salsa/pico de gallo/salsa verde (depending on the salsa, can be a good one to marinate)
• - technically a steak marinade but I use it on chicken too: equal parts balsamic vinegar, light salt/dark soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce; a tsp of spicy/dijon mustard, olive oil, garlic
• - philly cheesesteak style: marinate in pineapple juice and Worcestershire sauce (used to cook this at a renaissance festival, still trying to find the right proportions) serve with onions/peppers that have been oven baked
• - almost forgot! honey mustard, super simple marinade with spicy or dijon mustard and a bit of honey, heats up great to go on salads, usually make a bit of extra marinade to keep to the side for a honey mustard vinagrette

How do you bake them so they don't get dry?

Sear your chick breasts on stove top and transfer to a baking dish. Arrange in single layer and add chicken stock to the bottom of the baking dish. Just enough to go up 1/4 of the breast. Place in the oven at 350F until done. When done you can transfer the cooking liquid back into the stove pan and reduce it and you have gravy

Good to know, thanks for the tip!

I also check the temperature and make sure it doesn't go over 165.

Sautéed chicken breast mixed with cauliflower rice and onions. It has become one of my favorites!
