Default Re: How do you prepare boneless, skinless chicken breasts?

Very simple recipe for chicken - marinate overnight (or for several hours at least) in 1/2 soy sauce, 1/2 pineapple juice. Very tasty.

Also, a tip for cooking chicken: touch the fleshy part of your hand at the base of your thumb. Baked or broiled chicken breasts should have the same firmness (roughly) as this flesh does when you gently touch your thumb to your ring finger. The scale is:

Thumb/index - rare
Thumb/middle - mediumish
Thumb/ring - medium well / fully cooked
Thumb/pinky - dried out and probably gross

Don't flex your hand while doing this, keep it loose and relaxed.
