The Foreman Grill is supposedly quite good for chicken breasts, (So
says my daughter but she can't boil water) They gotta be thawed. I
buy the IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) split boneless breasts that
come in a big 4 lb resealable bag (about $6). No skin no bones no fat
no trimming. Take 'em out one at a time and ziplock the bag again.
Want it thawed? Nuke if a couple of minutes on med. low. Gonna stir
fry it? Nuke it half that long and cut it in chunks or strips. I
suppose you could bake a frozen breast but it's so easy to thaw just
one or two at a time.
