Tenderizing Chicken Breasts
One way I save money is by buying my meat in bulk from Costco – I get access to fresh meat at a good value. I don’t have proof that the chicken is of better quality, but I buy the fresh chicken breasts (not the frozen ones, not the pre-marinated ones, not the pre-flavored frozen ones.) Then when I get home, I bag about 2-4 of them in Ziplocs and throw ’em in the freezer for future use.
The other day I was watching a nifty show on The Food Network called “How to Boil Water.” Probably would have some good Grubgirl-approved recipe ideas. The recipe they showed was how to make chicken with arugula, tomatoes, and onions.
