In the trash it goes.

Hello /ck

I want to make a chicken lasagna and i need to now - What is the best way to grind the chicken? Cold or after boiled with water? Or Its the same?

How can you not eat chickens?

Look at that perfection.

How do you even cook these piece of shits. I manage to get a nice sear every single time but the inside remains under temperature.

>costs more than any other part of the chicken
>dry

Is there a shittier piece of meat?

>i want to cook chicken breast like the chefs
>pull out the DeBuyer

>olive oil
>wait until said oil is hot and start sizzling
>put chicken breast in
>nice, everything looks good
>let maillard effect do it's job on one side
>flip the meat, repeat on other side

Ended up with nice colored meat on both sides... and absolutely undercooked inside (60 degrees at very best, which isn't acceptable for consumption, in my book, for "commercial" white meat).

What's the culprit here ? If i waited a bit more for the meat to cook on one side (or both) the meat would've been most certainly overcooked, or at least start turning blackish. I can't seems to grasp the sear concept, is this because i'm running electric and not gaz ? I'm sick of having good looking meat in appearance that turns out being undercooked inside.

Whats the typical time and temperature required to cook a chicken breast? also, favorite seasoning?

So I've been making Curry for awhile now, and although the sauce is pretty good. The chicken always comes out really bland. I've tried marinating it in plain yogurt overnight. Chicken breast is still bland, and tried thighs also but still bland. I just don't know what to do. Been doing the curry on a slow cooker.

Any tips on making chicken taste better?

What's the best way to cook chicken breast?

I've never cooked before and I'm scared

My grandma used to say:

Skinless? Boneless? Flavourless.

The healthiest way or cooking chicken besides boiling?

I'm keeping a pretty strict diet and getting /fit/ at the same time, and as you know, chicken breast are a great source of lean protein and calories.
Due to health complications, I can't eat fried foods very often and I'm pretty bored of eating it boiled every day.

I have some boneless chicken breasts and don't know what to make with them. Help a brother out.

aside from that what cookbooks does /ck/ recommend?

How do I cook chicken breast for wraps, /ck/?

I've never cooked them before, and I don't want to fuck it up. I looked up some recipes and such, but I thought I'd come ask you guys.

I could either grill them, or I cook them in a pan, but I really don't know the proper way to do either.
