Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the chicken until browned on all sides. Add the wine and bouillon. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.


Remove the toothpicks, and transfer the breasts to a warm platter. Blend the cornstarch with the cream in a small bowl, and whisk slowly into the skillet. Cook, stirring until thickened, and pour over the chicken. Serve warm.

I have a few quick and simple recipes for chicken breast.





For an oven fried chicken breast. I season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder, then dredge in flour, then egg with a splash of milk, then seasoned breadcrumbs. Fry in skillet until brown on either side then remove (center will still be raw) and place in 350degree oven for 25-30 minutes. OR instead of dredging in flour first, use parmesean cheese it's really very good!





Or you can cube the breast, season with salt, wrap with smoky bacon, hold together with toothpick, then dredge in a combo of chilli pepper and brown sugar ( light or dark), put into 350 oven for 35-40 minutes, until bacon is crisp and and chicken is at 180 ( internal temp)... Be careful to not keep it in too long or on high heat, the sugar will burn and it wont taste very good.





Another option would be to season chicken breasts, brown on both sides, put into casserole dish, pour a can of cream of chicken mixed with a half can of milk on top of the chicken, then cover with already cooked stove top stuffing. Place in 350 oven for 30 minutes, so chicken cooks through. Then sprinkle cheddar cheese on to and cook an additional 5-10 minutes. VERY YUMMY! I made this with pork chops and it was great.





O and just a tip, whatever you do with chicken you can do with pork chops, so you can interchange them for different tastes.





Good luck!
depends what you like


you can marinade it in spices and cook in pan, oven, or boil in cling film.


same with lemon tarragon chicken.





you could do a chicken melt


cook some pastry cook the breast,


add cheese and a touch of cream salt pepper.





breast of curry





chicken breast with white wine sauce





battered chicken strips





chicken breast with a tomato and garlic sauce





stuffed chicken with mushrooms %26amp; bacon





chicken fajita





chicken maryland





butterfly chicken





chicken supreme





chicken forever
It would be good if the skin was on, that way you could put some butter under the skin and as it cooks it would keep the breast very moist.





But since they have no skin on i would take a sheet of tinfoil, put the chicken in and bunch up the foil at the top so its like a bag. Add a big nob of butter a little olive oil a good squeeze of lemon, plenty of salt and pepper and some finely sliced onion and cook in the oven for about 20-30 mins depending on the size at around 200. Just check it after around ten and youl be able to see how long more it needs.
This is such a broad question, it is tough to answer, but boneless skinless breasts tend to dry out. I'd either...marinate in an acid and an oil...and broil or fry, or I'd brine it and put a seasoning rub.





I'd highly suggest pounding the breasts flat in a ziplock or plastic wrap, then marinating in a balsamic vinaigrette, rolling in italian breadcrumbs and either baking at 350 or frying in a little olive oil.





OR you can brine it. I use a half cup per gallon ratio...read more about it here...http://bbq.about.com/cs/turkey/a/aa11010… and I use brown sugar and rosemary...and you can use apple juice instead of water. You only need an hour of brine time per pound. If your pieces are less than a pound each, then you need less than an hour of time. Then I make a saltless seasoning rub out of chili powder, black pepper, paprika, a little sugar, garlic powder, and onion powder. You don't need salt because of the brine. I coat the meat with a little olive oil, then rub it with the spices. This is great broiled, seared on the stove, or grilled.
This is one of my favorite recipes:

It gives you 4 options of how exactly to cook the chicken so you can use the recipe many times with different results. I haven't tried the one with Caesar dressing yet, but the Italian, Greek and Poppyseed are all AMAZING! The Greek is the best, I think.





Anyway, it's SUPER easy to cook. I usually just serve it with white rice. Also, if you like lots of sauce, double the chicken broth, dressing, and seasoning choices.





It's a hit every time I cook it, and demanded at least once a week in my house. Enjoy!
you could make red hot chicken...just marinate them in a mixture of 1/3 hoisin sauce, 1/3 ketchup, 1/3 molasses or brown sugar, 1/4 cup hot sauce, 1/4 cup honey. mix all together and marinate then cook in the marinade on the stovetop or the oven. make sure to cook the chicken on medium heat and that it is cooked all the way through. serve with rice and a salad.
deep fry lol


or wat i do is


olive oil ,lemon juice, half stick of butter, garlic, onion, chicken broth


place the chicken in an over proof pot add mixture till it almost cover the chicken cover n cook @ 350-400 for bout 1 1/2-2 hrs untill chicken is tender serve with either mashed taters or rice n veggies
I love this simple recipe.





Honey Chicken





3-4 chicken breasts, skinless, boneless


1/4 cup honey


2 tbsp. soy sauce


2 tsp. k etchup


salt and pepper





Mix and pour over chicken in a casserole dish or pan. Cover. Bake at 350 for 1 to 1 1/2 hrs.





I make this all the time and it goes great with rice and peas. Lots of sauce.
Try marinating them in a combination of fat free italian dressing and cracked red pepper and then baking them. It's simple and delicious. Doesn't have to be fat free just figured since they were boneless and skinless you might as well keep it healthy.
stir fry!


boil some noodles, fry the chicken till its a goldie brown with peppers, cellary,carrots,onions,and what ever else you want but dont use alot of oil ull make it greasy! then stir it into the noodles and make toast, its soo soo nice and only takes like 20 mins:)
Coating them with lemon pepper and pan frying them in a mixture of butter and olive oil until they are browned then de-glaze the pan with dry sherry or white wine is a delicious way....
chicken parmegian? cut a pocket into the breast, stuff with cheese, roll in italian bread crumbs... fry and serve with tomato sauce and noodles... yummy!
Fry in oil with a lot of garlic, black pepper and powdered chicken bullion. That really is the only acceptable way to eat chicken.
Just marinade them overnight in Italian dressing then grill them (etiher kind of grill works but i like the inside grill better)
Reggae Reggae sauce - just devine!!
sttuff them with italian risotto
