WANT MOIST CHICKEN?

These are the 2 simple cooking hacks for the juiciest chicken you’ve ever had. I usually do chicken thighs, but this is an amazing way to make regular chicken super moist! You need a little baking soda, to cook with the lid on & let it rest, and you’ll never have dry boring chicken again.

Ingredients
2 chicken brst
1 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp smoked paprika
Juice and zest of 1 small lemon
Salt & pepper to taste
Optional: 2 tbsp yogurt

Here is how I made it:

1.Add 2 chicken brsts to a bowl, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp smoked paprika, 1/4 tsp baking soda to soften up the fibers, the zest & juice of a lemon, and optional: 2 tbsp plain yogurt. Mix well, and make sure the chicken is at room temperature (not cold!) This is important!!

2.Let this marinate for 30 minutes (outside of the fridge). By not using cold chicken, it help cook the chicken evenly.

3.Bring a pan to medium heat. Once it’s hot, place the chicken in the pan. Cover with a lid and cook for 3 mins on the first side. This is going to trap the moisture.

4.After 3 mins, flip it, cover with the lid, reduce heat to MEDIUM-LOW, and let it cook for another 7-8 mins. If you used cold chicken, or if your pan wasn’t hot enough, or if your chicken was too thick, this may require more time (and not be juicy, so follow the directions!

5. After 7-8 minutes remove the chicken from the pan, place it on a cutting board or plate, and let it rest for at least 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and locking in the juices.
 
6.After resting, slice the chicken breasts against the grain and serve.

You can serve this however way you wish – with your favorite veggies, salad, or with rice, quinoa, or if you’re looking for lowcarb/keto options, my @kaizenfoodco lowcarb rice.
