Notes
- For frozen chicken breasts bring it to room temperature before cooking.
- If the chicken breasts are thick then slice from middle or hammer it to make it lean. In this way the chicken will be tastier after cooking.
- Shallow frying of the crispy breasts makes it delicious as the pores of meat closed due to frying which makes the chicken extremely delicious.
- If you think the breast is drying while cooking in a garlic sauce then add some broth/stock or water.
- Avoid overcooking.
- If the chicken breast seems to be hard then simmer in chicken broth for a few minutes. In this way, the chicken will be moist and juicy.
- Avoid over-frying the chicken.
- Control the temperature during frying and simmering.
- The addition of double garlic in form of freshly chopped garlic and garlic powder will add a strong garlicky aroma and taste. Over-addition can make the taste bitter so use it according to the recipe direction.
