Chicken breast is a good budget choice for lean protein. There is no waste, and it cooks in minutes!
-
At $3 per pound, a standard 2 to 3 ounce serving only costs 50 cents.
-
One pound of chicken breast (two half-breast pieces) provides enough protein for six servings.
-
Chicken breast absorbs the great flavors of fruit and vegetable sauces.
Cutting Chicken Breast:
-
Cutlets for Six. Trim visible fat. Make two cuts with a knife so pieces are about the same thickness. Make the first cut across the narrow, thin side of the breast. Make the second cut through lengthwise on the thicker portion.
-
Repeat the process for the second half-breast.
-
For stir-fry. Slice each cutlet across into ½ inch strips.
