* Exported from MasterCook * Brine : Chicken A La Minute Recipe By : "juiciest chicken breasts" Ann Heller Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Information Volume 2-4, Apr.'99 Chicken Main Dishes Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 4 large skinless boneless chicken breasts 1 teaspoon coarse salt 1 teaspoon sugar 2 tablespoons olive oil OR half butter and half oil fresh lemon juice pepper -- optional MEALPLAN - To test the technique, Ann used the simple recipe for cooking chicken breasts "a la minute," merely sauteing them in butter and oil and adding a squeeze of lemon juice after. If you like, you could make a quick pan sauce. If time is of the essence, just spoon on a dollop of chutney or salsa. Sliced into thick strips after cooking, the chicken would be perfect over a homemade Caesar Salad. INSTRUCTIONS - Trim any fat from chicken with kitchen scissors. Mix salt and sugar and sprinkle evenly over both sides of the chicken. Rub the mixture into the meat. Place in a plastic bag, seal and refrigerate for 8 hours, though a minimum of 4 hours will provide some enhancement. When ready to cook, rinse the chicken breasts thoroughly to remove the salt and sugar rub. Dry on paper towels, then sprinkle each side with pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook, turning once, until browned on both sides and cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes per side, depending on the size of the breasts. They will cook faster than chicken that has not been "pre-treated." -----------[review]----------- INTRO Ready to cook low fat chicken breasts are the rage. At its best, it is a blank canvas. At its frequent worst, it is dry. Painfully dry. That is probably why people drown the chicken in canned soup. PREPARATION: Take a tip from those who have learned about brining turkey and pork. A little bit of salt and sugar rubbed into the raw chicken will perform a minor miracle in three or four hours. Let it sit for eight hours and the miracle is more than minor. If something better comes along for dinner, you can leave the chicken refrigerated for 24 hours. DRY RUB BRINE - a dry salt-and-sugar rub is a variation on a liquid brine, and it's rinsed off after a few hours. After that you can proceed with any chicken recipe. When Ann Heller tried it, side by side with untreated chicken, she reports: "my knife glided through the salt-rubbed chicken with ease. It was definitely juicy, while the untreated breast meat had a dry and mealy feel." TIPS: Remember, over cooking chicken breasts is the deadliest sin. Discount recipes that specify an exact time. Chicken breasts vary in size from 3 ounces to 8 ounces. Obviously, the cooking times will be different. Unlike pork, chicken needs to be cooked well done, not medium. Cooked in a skillet, the times range from 4 minutes per side for a small breast to 6 minutes per side for an 8-ounce breast. Start with a minimum cooking time and check, nicking with a sharp knife to make sure the juices run clear. COOKS FASTER: For some reason, chicken with the salt/sugar rub cooks more quickly, a phenomenon we've noted with brined whole turkey. The scientists have yet to explain why. So check the chicken a little sooner when cooking your favorite recipe. 1999 Cox Interactive Media ActiveDayton.com Ann Heller, Dayton Daily News Fareshare posting from kitpath@earthlink.net 4/22/99 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
