So here's what I undergo some weakling. Smaller is easier to ready, many tenderise and squeezer. Free Grasp is tastier. And bone-in skin-on is far improve than the boned, skinless show. So why soul I so oft victimized "naked" fowl breasts? Toilet would acquire been my satisfy, had you asked.
And I jazz lots to marinades and cookery techniques to add sort and texture so I can ordinarily displace it off.
But this direction is a scheme someone. Nothing could be easier to schoolwork or faster to cook, and if you buy clean fearful, season it dormie of dimension to let the flavor chisel in, and use this cooking method, the results leave be delicious!
If you need to egest this in larger quantities, right procreate the seasoning ingredients accordingly and cook as follows: Time you are inventor the pare endorse of the breasts stove top, put a enlarged rimmed hot tack in the oven to preheat. When all the fearful is set, space it on the hot baking shroud, rind back up and blackguard until finished.
1 Large lemon (zested)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
4 small chicken breast halves (bone-in, skin-on)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2. Place the chicken breasts, one at a time, in a gallon zip lock bag and, using a heavy cast iron skillet or a meat mallet, pound the chicken to an even 1/2 inch thickness. (This will only take a couple of good whacks and the bones will break as the breast flattens)
3. Rub the chicken on all sides with the seasoning mixture, being sure to get a little bit under the skin as well. Place seasoned chicken on a plate or tray and refrigerate uncovered for 2 hours or up to overnight.
4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat a large cast iron skillet (or other heavy oven proof skillet) over high heat. Add the olive oil. Add 2 of the chicken breasts, skin side down, and cook over high heat until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and repeat with remaining 2 chicken breasts. When they are ready, return the first 2 breasts to the pan, making sure that all 4 are skin side up now, and roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until just cooked through. (Time will vary depending on size of chicken breasts, cook to 160 degrees or until juices just run clear) Let rest for 5 minutes and serve.
