The Best Way to Cook Chicken
There are various ways to cook chicken and the cooking method you pick depends on the result you are looking for. Chicken is a versatile ingredient, both in terms of chicken recipes and also cooking methods. You can deep fry, sauté, pan fry, poach, roast, grill, slow cook, steam, microwave, bake and broil chicken and as long as you do not overcook it, it normally comes out juicy and succulent.
When you use low fat chicken pieces such as boneless chicken breast, you have to keep an eye on the chicken while it cooks because it can dry out fast. Boneless chicken is lean and healthy and this means it does not have the necessary fat to keep it juicy if you cook it too long.
Pan Fried Chicken - Quick and Easy
If you want to cook chicken quickly, you can pan-fry it. For making a stir-fry, cut the chicken into small cubes and fry it in oil. You can also use cooking spray or butter. Keep it moving with a wooden spoon and it is done when the outside is golden brown and the inside is white all the way through.
You can cook larger chicken pieces in this way too and you might like to add some chicken seasoning, salt and pepper to the meat before cooking it, to flavor the outside. Pounded chicken will take three or four minutes but a whole breast will take longer.
Poached Chicken - Tender and Juicy
Poached chicken is also wonderful and poaching chicken in liquid means it will come out juicy and soft. You can poach chicken in wine, water, bouillon or any other liquid and this will infuse the chicken with flavor. Add some herbs or spices to the poaching liquid for extra flavor.
Chicken can be poached in a pot on the stove, in a dish in the oven or in your crockpot. This can take anywhere between fifteen and thirty minutes for normal poaching or several hours if you are using the low setting of your crockpot.
Other Chicken Cooking Methods
What about steaming chicken in your steamer? Fresh chicken will take about twenty minutes and frozen chicken will take about half an hour. You should put boneless, skinless chicken breasts on the bottom rack of a steamer if you want to try this and the chicken will be really juicy and moist.
Deep fried chicken is a real comfort food and few things beat deep fried chicken in terms of juiciness and speed. You can deep fry chicken really quickly and team it with fries, coleslaw, onion rings or anything else you like, for a quick, easy and delicious meal.
Other ways to cook chicken include the pressure cooker and the microwave. You can cook it in the pressure cooker really fast but do not serve microwaved chicken to young children or the elderly because it might not be cooked evenly.
There are also baked chicken recipes, smoked chicken recipes, and other easy chicken recipes using many different cooking methods. If you are new to cooking chicken, the best thing to do is to pick some easy chicken recipes and follow them closely. Once you are more familiar with cooking chicken, you can devise your own recipes and experiment with different cooking methods.

How to Cook Chicken on a Gas Grill
If you want to know how to cook chicken on a gas grill, the main thing is that it is quite simple, as long as you bear a few pointers in mind. Grilled chicken tastes great and can be used in many different grilled chicken recipes.
You can either cook a whole chicken, cut up into pieces, or chicken breasts without skin or bones. Each of these cuts needs to be cooked in a different way and there are challenges to both. Cooking skinless, boneless chicken means you have to make sure the chicken does not overcook, dry out, and lose flavor. Cooking skin-on chicken means you have to avoid the potential flare ups caused by burning chicken fat.
How to Grill Chicken Breasts
If you are cooking skinless chicken, it is important to apply something to the chicken to stop it from drying out. This can be a marinade or a thin layer of oil. You should also flatten chicken breasts before grilling them so the thin bits do not dry out before the thick bits are cooked. You can do this by pounding the chicken breasts with a kitchen mallet.

Fried chicken can be used to top a plate of salad if you are looking for a mouthwatering combination of crispness and softness. Fried chicken is full of flavor and adding it to lettuce, tomatoes and your other favorite salad ingredients, then drizzling a delicious blue cheese or ranch dressing over the top makes a wonderful lunch or a light dinner. Chicken salad is a great meal in the spring or summer and using fried chicken adds another flavor dimension to this classic recipe. You can see from the above photo how appetizing a fried chicken salad looks. Serve this in small portions as a tasty appetizer or larger portions for an exciting entree.
Using Chicken to Make Chicken Salad Recipes
There is no reason why a salad has to be a boring plate of green leaves. Adding something as simple as chicken can really liven up your salad and make it something special. Perhaps you have some leftover cooked chicken from making one of our baked chicken recipes or crockpot chicken recipes, in which case you can use it to top your salad.
If you want to serve a warm chicken salad, why not fry some chicken with chopped bacon? Bacon and chicken are beautiful together and the grease from the bacon means you do not have to add any oil to the pan. Serving warm chicken over chilled salad leaves gives you a gourmet salad and the textures and temperatures contrast nicely as well as the flavors.
A chicken salad can be a lunch, an appetizer, or an entree. Serve the salad on a small plate if you want it for an appetizer and add a splash of color to make it look nice. Cherry tomatoes look good on chicken salad recipes or you could add a gourmet touch with some balsamic vinegar-drizzled strawberries.
The Easiest Chicken Salad Recipes
For a really basic salad, you can simply chop some boneless chicken and pan fry it until it is cooked through, then serve it on top of lettuce. Extra optional ingredients for such a salad could include fruit, nuts, tomatoes, cucumber, pickles, raw vegetables like broccoli, zucchini or cauliflower, raisins, bacon bits, cubes of cheese and much more.
You might like to use leftover chicken from one of our grilled chicken recipes to make a chicken salad or what about trying one of the salads with smoked chicken recipes? Smoked chicken tastes heavenly.
How Long Does Chicken Keep?
If you have some chicken left over from making one of our easy chicken recipes, you might be wondering how long cooked chicken keeps in the refrigerator. Actually cooked chicken keeps for three or four days. It is usually fine for up to five days but it is safer to stick to the three or four day guideline, just to make sure.
Store the leftover chicken in a covered container in the coolest part of the refrigerator. If you do not think it is going to be eaten within a couple of days, you might want to freeze it instead.
How to Thaw Chicken
Thawed chicken should be cooked within twenty-four hours and you can thaw chicken in the microwave, in a cold water filled basin or bowl, or in the refrigerator. If you are defrosting it in the microwave or in a cold-water bath, you will need to cook it as soon as it has finished thawing.
Do not defrost chicken at room temperature because bacteria breeds at this temperature. It is never worth taking risks with chicken because it is so economical to buy. If you are in doubt about whether your chicken is safe to eat or not, throw it away rather than risking it.
Raw Chicken Storage
Uncooked chicken keeps for a couple of days in the refrigerator so if you aren't planning to eat it so soon you can either cook it or freeze it raw. When you buy fresh chicken, pay attention to the "use by" date on the packaging. If you plan to freeze the chicken, write the freezing date on the packaging and use the chicken within six months.
Healthy Chicken Recipes - All the Flavor without the Fat
Chicken is really versatile and easy chicken recipes range from the extremely nutritious to the fat-laden dishes you might be trying to avoid. Deep fried chicken is not the healthiest dish you could choose, nor is chicken in a cheesy, creamy sauce, but there are so many healthy chicken recipes to choose from and lots of these taste just as amazing as the more calorie-laden ones.
If you are looking for low fat chicken recipes or low calorie chicken dishes, consider flavoring the chicken before you cook it, rather than making a fattening sauce or dressing.
For example, if you poach a boneless chicken breast in water with a little white wine added to it and perhaps some fresh parsley too, you will end up with a delicately flavored chicken breast, which can be served with a salad. If you simply poach the chicken in water it will not have the herb and wine flavor and you will be tempted to add flavor with a creamy, high fat dressing.
Easy Breast Chicken Recipes
Boneless chicken has very little connective tissue or fat, which means it is naturally healthy but also prone to dry out if you do not take care when cooking it. You can use cooking spray instead of oil for pan-frying chicken or you can smoke the chicken to give it lots of flavor.
Since the smoke gives the flavor to the chicken, this is a great way to maximize flavor without adding calories or fat to it. Chicken can be a dieter's best friend because it is naturally healthy yet satisfying and supremely tasty.
