How To Make This Recipe

Cooking Tips For Juicy Chicken Breasts

I am sure you have tasted way too many dry, tough, rubbery chicken breasts that taste like a pair of old leather shoes. The number one reason is the length of baking time. Chicken cooks very fast with intense oven heat at 400°F or 425°F. DO NOT over-baked the chicken. The meat should have an internal temperature of 165°F when it’s fully cooked. The easiest way to check doneness is to cut a small slit using a knife at the thickest part of the chicken. As soon as the chicken meat turns opaque, it’s fully cooked. The chicken will be moist and flowing with juice. Over cooking and baking the chicken will dry up all the juice, making it chewy, rubbery and dry.
