Why should you be choosing chicken breast more?

Chicken breast is full of lean protein and it’s super easy to cook. 1 cup of chopped cooked chicken breast has 231 calories, 0 gram fat, and a whooping 43 grams of protein! Thus, it suits people who want to build lean muscle, lose weight, and for recovery.

Tips

Make sure to soak up the moisture of the raw chicken! The liquid from raw poultry meat can contain bacteria that is dangerous for your health.

Check your chicken – what I mean is that even the cook time is up, cut one chicken open to see if it’s really fully cooked. Your oven and the size of the chicken breast are variables to the cook time and temperature, so please check to make sure if it is fully cooked.

Remember to rotate the pan each time you take it out to ensure your chicken cooks evenly!

Storage and Freezing

To store, simply let the chicken cool down completely and place them in a airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.

To freeze, let the chicken cool down completely, then place them in a freezer friendly bag and adding a piece of parchment paper in between layers of chicken.

Or, you can wrap each chicken in parchment paper and freeze. By freezing chicken, you/re keeping them fresh for up to 9 months.When you’re ready to eat the chicken, take your desired portion out and defrost. After that you can just reheat it however you want. Sometimes I reheat it in the microwave.
