make a mexican chicken dinner in your crockpot or pressure cooker. you'd have tasty left overs for days. get a can of rotelle green chilis and tomatoes, a mild onion, garlic, black beans. sautee and onions and garlic in 1/2 tbs of oil, dice up cubes of chicken, add to pan, add salt, cumin, pepper, garlic powder, lime if you have it. put the mixture in your crock pot, add rotelle and rinsed black beans. let it cook on low for a few hours. the longer it cooks the more tender your chicken wil be. serve over rice! use tortilla shells to make tacos.

you don't need marinade with that recipe mang, but if you insist on marinating it, use herdez green salsa

Here's what I got so far, need some more ideas /ck/

I'm doing a chicken pasta tonight with zucchini
>>
It's boring chicken breast. Asking what to do with it is like asking for a lesson in basic cooking 101. You can literally just put it on a sheet try, pour sambal olek (or literally anything) over it, and bake. Serve over rice with whatever vegetable that's cheap and in season and you have a tastier, more nutritious meal than any bachelor chow food hack the people here who normally eat chicken breast would recommend.
>>
>>7781013
-Frank's Red Hot chicken. Dust in Tony Chachare's, Let it sit in a ziplock with the hot sauce, and grill.

-Chicken Parmesan. Butterfly, S&P, soak in buttermilk, flour, egg wash, bread crumb and parmesan, then pan fry. Put it under the broiler with mozarella and parmesan, serve with red sauce.

-Chicken Stir Fry. This one doesn't need explaining, just get marinades and vegetables to suit your fancy.

-Chicken-Stuffed Chicken. Make three pockets, fill with ketchup, mayo, and mustard, pan sear. Blend, put in another chicken breast, and cook that one up. Season with salt, pepper, and whatever else you want beforehand.

That should get you started...
>>
Cut it into strips, place the strips in some egg wash.

Next to that, put in a cup of bread crumbs and some seasoning in a bowl or something, i like lemon pepper + a bit of salt.

Bread the egg covvered chicken and fry it up in a pan of oil, canola or peanut is good enough. Make sure its at least half an in of oil.

There ya go, cheap, home made chicken tendies

>>7781130
Mix some flour into the bread crumbs too if you want to make em a bit more even. Like 1/4 cup flour for every cup of bread crumbs.

OP here. Have a ton of chicken, most of it is getting frozen. I'm marinating a whole breast. Might as well roast half. Anyone have any suggestions for a spice rub?

I used this last time I smoked some chicken and pork. Was pretty good. Remember that 1/4 cup is 4 tbsp so you can reduce the amount made to whatever.

Do you have molasses?
>>
>>7781920
Kind of, Treacle is halfway to molasses. Brown sugar is just white sugar and molasses.

Not even the guy you're responding to originally though, both honey or treacle would work for chicken recipes. Honey pecan chicken is tits.

Here's the bird roasting.
>>
>>7781023
It's a disclaimer of sorts. The chicken is raised without hormones and steroids because it's not allowed. They act like they're providing a superior product when the truth of the matter is that they can do no less.

** Federal Regulations Prohibit The Use Of Added Hormones Or Steroids In Chicken

OP here. While the bird is roasting, I'm going to put a honey cream sauce together for chicken and serving with nuts as previous anon mentioned earlier. If I understand right, it's honey, mayo, soy sauce, and wasabi powder. Any feedback before I give this a shot?

>>
>>7782014
Sounds kind of all over the place, dude. Crush up the nuts a little with a mallet in a ziplock, melt butter on the stove, throw in the cream, honey, and nuts, then the chicken to coat.

Slightly undercook the chicken so you can finish it in the sauce.

Looks overdone, make a mental note if it is.

I like pan searing on each side then finishing in a more gentle oven. Or you could go autistic America's Test Kitchen route and "revers sear" by "dry sous vide" in a low gentle oven, then searing on the stovetop.

This thread reminded me of something

Is there anything wrong with just tossing chicken in a bowl of cold water to thaw it?

I always worried about the whole "COOK IT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAWED point, but I keep letting chicken go bad because it goes bad in a few days and I forget about it.
>>
>>7782302
???

Just put them in the fridge for a day or two. Or if you want to thaw and use it that day, put it in cool water for a few hours. Don't know where you got your shitty advice from...
>>
>>7782309
>put them in a fridge for a day or two
I do that, and then I don't get around to cooking it or something and it goes bad.

I've just never really used the cold water method, that's all.
>>
>>7782302
>>7782309

I've always been anti-sticky, but the one thing I know is damn well indisputable is how to thaw frozen protein. It's how every restaurant does it, and Alton Brown even had an episode both demonstrating and explaining the science behind why it works.
>>
>>7782302
I throw it in a bowl of salt water and leave it out on the counter. It sits there for like 4 hours, then I bake to 160. Never been sick.
>>
>>7782322
It's a technique only useful specifically for meat, better referred to with a one syllable word of only four letters rather than a two syllable word of seven letters, you total retard.
>>
Make little cuts and stuff with garlic and butter then throw salt and pepper on it them put it in the oven. Juicy, flavorful, generally a good time.
>>
>>7781036
Lemme hop on this train by offering another crock pot recipe.

Pick up a family can of cream of chicken (or just two regular cans)
Can of chicken broth (or just use bullion cubes)
Your favorite stewing vegetables and potatoes. (Potatoes are a staple for most stews and the likes I make)

Put the cream of chicken into a crock pot, add a can of chicken broth, stir it all together. Cut the chicken into chunks. (You could probably do it whole but that's up to you) Then chunk and add potatoes.

Cook on high for 2 hours, or on mine I find low at 3 hours works. After this time period, add the remaining vegetables you bought, and then add dumplings. If you're not lazy, you can make them yourself. Otherwise, what works for me is to just buy a can of biscuit dough, rip it up, and throw it in. (I mean it works.)

Cook one more hour, and you have tasty Chicken and Dumplings for minimal effort. I make this more than I should.

Post deals?

Not sure what all we can get yet besides corn(obviously). I'm hoping they'll have green beans, white potatoes, and various greens, but I'm not holding my breath...

If you have a senior discount then it's effectively $0.36 per can.

I've never seen chicken that cheap around here, but my local grocery has that price on pork
Chops, roasts, sausage and loins for $1/lb year round.
I don't know how they do it, and I honestly don't think I want to.

Alright, I've had a few people here talking about my quinoa pasta on the thread since I've posted last night. I have the other half breast marinating in the fridge since last night. Going to make some veggie basil chicken pasta with it when I get home soon.

Of course it is when they hire people like Costanza.

About 26% of the weight of a split breast is bone and cartilage (an additinal 9% is skin and fat).

So de-bone them. Between them all, you should have enough bone/cartilage for roughly 2litres/quarts of stock.

Freeze the meat for future uses. I like to run 80% lean breast meat and 20% skin/fat through the mincer to make chicken meatballs. Works best if the skin is frozen at least partially.

Why the fuck is literally everything in my country one giant ripoff? Even if you ignore some quality control, almost all the standards in Canada are the same as the USA because NAFTA, especially with food.

Beer costs double, flights are double, books are 25-100% higher, now chicken, ON SALE, is literally 7x as expensive.

>Require tax money.
Dude, the definition of infrastructure for my government federally includes 'social infrastructure' that can help mold the minds of future generations.

The idea of progress with my provincial government is raising my income tax, raising corporate taxes, introducing $15/h wages, and introducing a carbon tax that will cost city homes an extra $500/yr, all in a recession that can't afford that shit... Why? So they as a party can prepare my province, an oil province, for a ideological green doctrine that will cost my country 3 times it's current debt for nothing.

Healthcare spending? Fine.
Education? Ok, within reason.
Actual infrastructure for industry and public? coo

But two levels of government in my country are presently full retard.
