STOP making dry chicken breast! This is HOW you make JUICY chicken

✨You can find the full printable recipe with tips and directions linked here
www.themodernnonna.com/juicy-...
Chicken breast should always be juicy, never dry, or overcooked. The truth is, if the chicken breast is dry, you are most likely overcooking it. You are also most likely overcooking it because you are not using a meat tenderizer to even it out. Chicken breast is always thicker on one side and thinner on the other side so if you are not using a meat tenderizer to flatten it out, one side will always be super dry and the other side will take way longer to cook. Today I’m showing you a very simple way to make juicy chicken breast if you don’t have the time but for optimal results, I highly recommend you marinate any meat you work with overnight. Marinating chicken overnight will give you the best results but if you don’t have the time I’m showing you how to make a very delicious and juicy chicken recipe regardless.
INGREDIENTS:
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts pounded into equal sized filets salt to taste
lemon pepper seasoning to taste
avocado oil for the pan + a drizzle on the chicken

Pro tip:keep the chicken breast moisturized with lemon juice and don’t over cook it.

[@melanier7309]

A little olive oil helps too.

[@jordanblack6589]

@@melanier7309 make sure it’s not extra virgin though. You don’t want to cook with EVOV, too low of a smoke point.

[@tengolino9803]

Amazing. But the best i ve done is to brine it. One hour minimum. Just sprinkle salt on each side and let it rest for minimum 1 hour. It's so tender and Juicy👍

[@infallible7425]

I've done that before its called a dry brine I believe. But a better option is to make a brine with 4 cups water, 3tbsp salt, and 1 tbsp dark brown sugar. Brine your chicken breast for 1-2hrs in this, then coat with your favorite seasoning blend. I personally do 1½ hrs though

[@kinggeedorah947]

@@infallible7425 i tried “wet brining” but i didnt really like the results the chicken breast came out slimy rather than juicy, it’s definitely a preference thing; dry brining is the sweet spot between juicy but still firm chicken breast :)

[@kingrueben1211]

Same. Juciest chicken ever. Dry brine let set cook, never fails

[@richiejohnson]

​​@@infallible7425I heartily agree. Great results with wet brine (also with pork)

Pulling at 165 the chicken will continue to cook to 170-175 while resting, and you’ll have dry chicken. Pull the breast off around 157-160, you’ll have juicy chicken every time.

[@themodernnonna]

Yes but most people are scared or don’t wait so I make sure I say 165F on videos.

Mayo is even better than olive oil. Also you can get away with cooking it to 155, it just needs to hold that temp for a little while

[@jamoriahopson1306]

Yes sir you got it! This is the comment I was looking for mayo does the trick moisture and flavor then season and viola👌

[@willydilly9020]

Let it rest and rub the cut part with the juices so it looks better on camera.

[@WeMustAllStandAsOne]

😂😂😂

[@Keliiyamashita]

Wet brine is the real answer.

[@cristianroth8524]

I think what most home cooks fail to do is understand what's happening in their pan. In Marco Pierre White's words, always question what you're doing and why. The chicken breast is probably the second easiest thing to fix after the mayonnaise: higher temperatures - shorter cooking time - longer resting time. Other things are much more difficult to fix, especially desserts and pastry products. A high end cake is mathematics, physics and chemistry on a plate.

You're insane. That was actually slightly overcooked.i seen it on pan till 167 then it cooks alittle more after. I pull off griddle at 155 and let sit for 15 mins without cutting and its fully cooked but moist even cold out the fridge next few days.

@@ex.hindu.now.atheist Rest it for 5 mins and let it reach 165 without further cooking.

@@wickywills food is still cooking when you take it out of a pan/oven, off the grill. Look up "carry over coooking" F stabd for farehnheight but i know the rest of the world uses celsius.

[@ex.hindu.now.atheist]

@@wickywills "Rest it for 5 mins and let it reach 165 without further cooking." ===================================== OK... So I take it that it means to take the food off the heat at around 155 F - 160 F, and then let it rest (and continue getting cooked in the accumulated internal heat) till it touched 165 F. Thank You.

I always let my chicken rest for a little bit. I think it makes it juicier
