Boneless skinless chicken breasts?

Filed under: Poultry |

Question by psycho-cook: Boneless skinless chicken breasts?
I’ve acquired a large amount of these tasteless things and am looking for some good ways to cook them. I am usually more fond of chicken thighs because of the moistness and heartier flavor. I’ll take any kind of recipes you’ve got as long as they’ve got some flavor to them.

What do you think? Answer below!

  2. Indian style: tandoori or tikka or curry?

    marinate with yogurt to keep them tender, use a grill pan or broiler.

  4. you can slow cook them in a crock pot with cut up onions and celery and mushrooms (whatever you might have) in either a chicken broth or a cream of mushroom soup base. Either is fine and the chickens ends up being really tender.

    You can also make casseroles with them. Chicken and Rice is easy.

    1 can Cream of Celery soup
    1 can cream of chicken soup
    1 can cream of mushroom soup
    1 cup of rice (I usually add a smidge more than a cup)
    1 can of water
    2 tablespoons of butter
    salt and pepper
    4 chicken breasts (I usually cut them up into strips, they cook better)
    paprika to sprinkle on the chicken for a bit of flavor and color

    Mix all the wet ingredients and rice together in a pam sprayed 9×13 baking dish. Lay the chicken, either whole or sliced, on top of the rice/soup mixture and sprinkle with the paprika. Cover with foil and bake at 300 for about 3 hours.

    it’s easy to do and tastes pretty good 🙂

  5. They are so VERSATILE—you have a treasure trove!
    Dice them, boil them, then add taco seasoning mix for chicken tacos.
    Cube them, marinate in Italian dressing & thread on skewers with peppers & onion–then grill for beautiful kabobs!
    Boil until done, then shred, add your favorite BBQ sauce, and simmer. Serve on crusty rolls.
    Cut in strips, marinate in fajita sauce, and stir-fry with onions & peppers. Wrap in flour tortillas.
    Cut in strips, marinate in SOY sauce, and stir fry with your favorite frozen blend veggies, and serve over rice (or add extra water & a broken up block of ramen noodles)
    Boil them, chp them, add gravy & a can of peas & carrots, top with pie crust for pot pie.
    If you can imagine it, you can make it a great dinner with these on hand.
    Good luck!

  10. buy some sweet and sour sauce and if youd like for a little zest spicy brown sugar bb-q sauce put chicken on skewers and add sauces to coat let them grill till they are thick and sticky looking about 15 minutes turning occasionally and they are great you can also do this in oven everyone loves them they stay juicy cause you are not poking them so juice stays inside

  11. A real easy recipe that’s still pretty yummy is on the bisquick box for Chicken Pot Pie. VERY simple and not bad at all. I get bored with these too, but you can learn how to make Chicken Francaise, Chicken Marsala, Chicken salad, Chicken and Dumplings, etc. I use this website b/c so many people rate the recipe from a 1-5 stars. So you can only try the ones that are getting excellent comments! It’s a foolproof way to get good recipes, without wasting time trying things you have no clue how it will come out.

  13. I am like you. I prefer the thighs, but cooking them in sauce helps moisten them up, and here are a couple of recipes…

    1. Take a Pyrex baking dish (about 9×13), and put in a layer of chicken. rinse and add some fresh small button mushrooms on the top (about 12 oz). Take a blender and put in… a bottle of BBQ sauce / add just enough water to the empty bottle to get out the remaining sauce, swish around pour into the blender / add a heaping t-spoon of crushed garlic / add a nice sized jalapeno. turn on the blender and liquefy, and pour over the chicken and mushrooms. Let this marinate in the fridge for a good 4 hours. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 1-3/4 hours.

    2. Put chicken and shrooms into Pyrex like in the above recipe. Sprinkle fairly heavily with garlic powder. Pour a 30 oz can of papaya, mango, or pineapple over it (fruit & liquid ). do the same with a small can of Mandarin oranges. Again, let marinate in the fridge for about 4 hours. Again, cook for 1-3/4 hours. – Cook rice on the side, and pour the baked fruit over it on the plate.

  14. Here’s one that we like because it’s so simple. Lightly salt and pepper the chicken breasts and just before grilling, spray them lightly with Pam for Grilling. For instructions on how to grill chicken breasts so they don’t dry out we use the cookout calculator at charcoalbob.com.

    Allow them to rest for a few minutes after you take them off the grill. Then dip each bite in your favorite barbecue sauce, like you would a shrimp sauce.

    To add a little more zip, season the chicken breasts with a nice rub. Our favorite it Durn Good seasoning.
