red chilli
tumeric
paprika
green chillies (optional)
can add a little olive oil to cook all or water works just as well
can stay in fridge for couple weeks and goes on chicken, lamb, vegetables, even lentils0 -
Hello all,
I'm surprised that the combination
Soy Sauce
Garlic chopped
Ginger chopped
hasn't come up ...
Mix with the meat and let season for a few hours.
Then fry with a little oil (sesame prefered) in a non stick pan.
It's better to slice the chicken breast into chinese style slices (about 5 mm think cut rectangular to the direction of the fibers) for seasoning, this also makes it easier in timing the "cooked to perfection" point.
have fun!

Score the flesh & marinate for at leat 30 mins using one of the following flavour combos and then cook in a roasting bag to make sure it's uber juicy and creates a sauce to go with it! It would be even better to make a pouch in the chicken to stuff more of the marinade in.
If you havent heard of these before- there are literally hundreds of recipes online, so just goofle it! You won't be sorry.

My kids go nuts when I squirt some Italian Dressing on the chicken while it's cooking. Since it's oil based you don't need anything else in the pan (ie olive oil or butter). If I actually think before hand, I'll marinade it in the dressing first. I serve this 1-2 times a week EVERY week and I never have leftovers. I never experimented with low-fat Italian dressings, but I imagine they would be good too.0

Hi! I want to know some ways to season/add flavor when cooking chicken breasts in a pan because I'm tired of tasteless chicken ha. Please share!
Very easy to do..
Make some infused olive oil - a variety of herbs and spices to choose from.
Roast up a bunch of garlic in olive oil..... take some of the oil from that, add some roasted garlic for a pureed-oil..
Compound-butter - use any herbs/spices that you like.
Your favorite homemade dressing
Dont be afraid to take a favorite alcoholic beverage too! I will make an 8oz Patron-silver Margarita and make a batch of chicken flavored like CRAZY!!!!!!!0 -
I use Perfect Pinch (salt substitute) flavorings and pepper.0

We do a simple brush of olive oil and then season with salt and pepper. This is fantastic on the grill but also works for pan searing. I even tried this on fish lat night and got a thumbs up from my husband.0

Other than chicken with Alfredo sauce or Parmesan chicken, I usually do stir fry with chicken breasts. Breast meat is so dry, you really need a sauce.0
-
Whatever you season it with, add a very small amount of olive oil and white vinegar. Say you have a dry spices you are going to use, add those to your baggie, drop in your chicken add about 2 tbls olive oil and white vinegar. Squish around the bag so that everything is coated. Put in the fridge at least 20 minutes. When you are ready to cook your chicken, sear it on both sides without burning then turn down the heat.
If you do a bunch at a time, remember to undercook just a little if you are going to reheat in the microwave. If you cook till completely done, you'll have a piece of rubber for lunch. :flowerforyou:0 -
oh how inspiring!
three flavours that are stirring my fancy these days are:
Chimichurri-garlic, oil, red wine vinegar and a good mix of fresh herbs. This time around I made it with dill cilantro and mint. Whiz up with a hand blender and then add to the grilled meat
I was in an Italian specialty shop and picked up a jar of chili pepper and garlic condiment...and it is astounding
dijon mustard. slather it on, and then roast/grill it up. The strong taste mellows into pure heaven.0 -
I add salsa to mine sometimes. I also use lemon pepper too sometimes.0

this. list. is. awesome.0

Some marjoram (or oregano) and Spanish paprika. You can rub the chicken breast with olive oil if you like. I find the chicken breast is fat enough so I tend not to. Bake 20 min at 375. Just don't over bake if you don't use the olive oil. It is my family's fall back for a rushed meal so I use it all the time. I use it on chicken thighs too.0

I love Tandoori Chicken. I season it with a Tandoori seasoning I can only get online as it is sold in Canada(weird, eh?) But anyway, it is the best Tandoori out there. I tend to mix the spice with plain yogurt to make it less spicy and it makes it a nice thick sauce. Let it marinate the chicken for awhile and on the grill or the oven. So good.....I want some now.0
