Chicken is a popular product among people who adhere to a healthy diet and those who prefer the lightest varieties of meat. At the same time, chicken breast is a dietary food, and when cooked correctly, it also turns out incredibly tasty.

How to cook chicken breast

In most cases, fillet and breast are the same thing, since the former is usually made from the latter, simply by separating the white meat from the bones, freeing it from cartilage. Not everyone likes white meat, since it often turns out to be a bit dry, however, proper cooking of the meat will help to avoid this, and then the dish will be juicy, tender, and soft. A variety of foods are prepared from chicken, from chops, casseroles and juliennes to salads, pizza and sandwiches. For each dish, the cooking technology will be individual.

In the oven

The great advantage of this part of the chicken is its low calorie content, however, this indicator largely depends on the method of preparing the dish. If, during frying, the meat acquires a lot of extra calories, then the baked breast turns out to be dietary. When baking chicken in the oven, you need to take into account the following nuances:

  • the product must be chilled or fresh, since meat frozen or thawed at room temperature loses its taste;
  • to bake meat in the oven and preserve its juices, it is better to use a sleeve or foil, otherwise the dish will be dry;
  • A sauce that forms a crust during baking can serve as a replacement for the sleeve/foil, thanks to which the meat juice does not flow out and remains inside the product.

In a frying pan

The process of frying chicken is very simple, but maintaining its juiciness is not always possible even for experienced cooks. The easiest way to cook delicious meat in a frying pan is to pour some sauce over the lightly fried pieces, but in this case you will not get a fried dish, but rather a stew. If you want fried, juicy chicken, then the surest way to achieve this is to cook the fillet in batter or breading. Recipes for chicken breast in a frying pan call for serving this meat with various sauces (tomato, mustard, garlic, etc.).

Boiled chicken breast dishes

Cooking chicken breast in a frying pan

There is no difficulty in preparing this dish. Having bought the breast in the store, separate the breast from the cartilage and bones and remove the skin. It’s even easier if we bought ready-made fillets - just wash the meat under running water. Cut each breast lengthwise into several pieces. This way the pieces will be thinner and you will get more servings.
Lightly beat each piece with a hammer. Many chefs recommend frying the breast in batter and breading. This way the juice will remain in the meat. Another trick for preserving juiciness is to salt the finished dish after cooking.

Chicken breast in dough

A very simple and win-win recipe for preparing a dish from dietary meat. You can serve it with mashed potatoes, boiled rice or pasta. All this can be beautifully decorated with greenery.

We will need:

  • one chicken breast;
  • garlic;
  • two eggs;
  • wheat flour - half a glass;
  • salt, spices.

We wash the meat, cut it into slices no thicker than 1 cm, and lightly beat it with a hammer. Then salt the pieces and season with spices. Place finely grated garlic into a container with meat. Mix everything well and let soak for 15-20 minutes.

While our chicken is marinating, beat the eggs.

Pour sunflower oil into a hot frying pan. Prick the chicken pieces onto a fork, dip them into the egg mixture, then dip them into the flour and carefully place them in the frying pan. Be careful not to burn yourself with the oil.

Fry on both sides until golden brown, just a few minutes over medium heat. The main thing is that the meat does not burn or become dry.

Chicken breast fried in batter

Children especially like this recipe. The dish looks interesting and unusual, especially if it is decorated with a sprig of parsley and vegetables.

Ingredients for the dish:

  • chicken fillet;
  • flour;
  • half a glass of milk;
  • 2 chicken eggs;
  • sunflower oil;
  • pepper and salt to your taste.

Cut the meat into pieces, one piece per serving. Rinse under the tap. Lightly beat the pieces with a kitchen hammer. Sprinkle with pepper and salt and leave the breast for a while. In the meantime, let's prepare the batter.

Take two eggs, flour and milk, whisk thoroughly with a whisk. It is necessary to achieve the consistency of sour cream and the absence of lumps.

Prick a piece of meat on a fork, dip it in the batter and fry in a heated frying pan in oil until golden brown. At the end, you can close the lid for a minute so that the meat is slightly steamed. As a side dish you can use mashed potatoes, rice, fresh vegetables. Decorate with greens.

Breast in creamy marinade in a frying pan

Chicken fillet turns out incredibly tender if it is soaked in cream. For this incredibly tasty dish we need:

  1. Four chicken breasts.
  2. Garlic – 5 cloves (large).
  3. Cream 30% fat 1 cup.
  4. Curry powder – 1 tbsp. spoon.
  5. Olive oil – 1 tbsp. spoon.
  6. Sunflower oil – 1 tbsp. spoon.
  7. Salt.

Warm the cream to room temperature, pour in a spoonful of olive oil and beat well. Place pieces of white meat into the resulting mass and put them in a cool place for a couple of hours.

Mix finely chopped garlic with curry powder. We take the fillet out of the refrigerator. Rub the meat soaked in cream with a spicy mixture of garlic and curry. Place the pieces in a heated frying pan with oil and fry on both sides for 5 - 7 minutes until golden brown. If you sprinkle hot fried pieces with grated cheese, you will get a real delicacy.

Breast with vegetables breaded with walnuts

Your guests will certainly ask for the recipe when they try this dish. It turns out to be very aromatic, satisfying and tasty.

List of products:

  • walnuts without shell – 200 g;
  • flour - half a glass;
  • frozen assorted vegetables – 200 g;
  • lettuce – 30 g;

  • zest from half a lemon;
  • salt and pepper.

Wash the fillet and dry it on a paper towel. Then rub the meat with salt and pepper, spread it with mustard and let it soak for 10 minutes. For now, chop and fry the walnuts in a frying pan. They should release a pronounced nutty aroma.

Beat the eggs with a whisk. Bread the breasts in flour, dip them in the egg mixture, and then roll them in toasted walnuts.
Fry the chicken over high heat in a wide frying pan for 5 minutes on both sides.

Transfer the meat to a plate. Defrost the vegetables and place them in the same pan where the breasts were cooked. We simply warm up the vegetables without frying them. Place the washed green salad leaves beautifully on a large plate. Then put the fried breasts and vegetables there. Decorate the dish with lemon zest.

Chicken breast in an omelette

Chicken fillet with omelet is a great option for both breakfast and dinner. White chicken meat is quickly digested, without giving the effect of heaviness in the stomach. At the same time, it provides the body with the required amount of proteins and minerals.

Ingredients:

  • 500 g chicken fillet;
  • 4 chicken eggs;
  • flour - 1 tbsp. spoon;
  • thick sour cream - 1 tbsp. spoon;
  • black pepper and salt.

We remove the white meat from bones and skin and wash it in running water. Then cut the breast lengthwise into 3-4 portions. Lightly beat the meat with a hammer and add salt. Fry the slices over high heat for 30-40 seconds on each side until lightly browned.

Place the fried pieces of meat into a greased baking dish. In a separate bowl, beat salted eggs with flour, add sour cream and spices. Beat again. Pour the resulting mixture over the chicken breasts and place the pan in the oven at a temperature of about 220 degrees. After a quarter of an hour, a golden crust will appear on the surface of the omelette. You can remove the food from the oven.

Ministerial chicken breast in a frying pan

Ministerial breast is a dish suitable for both everyday meals and festive feasts. Children especially love to crunch the delicious crust of chicken schnitzel.

Minimum ingredients required:

  • chicken breasts – 500g;
  • white loaf (preferably yesterday’s) – 1 pc.;
  • chicken eggs – 2 pcs.;
  • salt, pepper, spices.

Cut the loaf into very small cubes (like crackers). Wash the breasts and cut into pieces. Beat the eggs and don't forget to add a little salt. Lightly beat the meat, dip it in the egg and immediately roll it in the prepared “crumbs”. Immediately place the meat in the hot oil in a frying pan.

Fry the breast in breadcrumbs until golden brown on all sides. The ministerial schnitzel is ready. Can be served with different side dishes - mashed potatoes, boiled rice, spaghetti or vegetables. Green peas are very good here as a side dish.

Chicken breast julienne

Perhaps the most exquisite chicken fillet dish remains julienne. Not everyone has special portion cocotte makers. We will prepare this dish in a baking dish.


Chicken breast julienne

We will need:

  • champignons – 400 g;
  • chicken fillet – 400 g;
  • 1 medium onion;
  • 1 cup cream 25%;
  • butter – 50 g;
  • hard cheese – 200 g;
  • vegetable oil;
  • pepper and salt.

We start cooking by cutting the meat into cubes. Cut the mushrooms into smaller pieces and cut the onion into thin half rings. Then fry all the ingredients separately until cooked. After this, put the products in molds, pepper and salt, and fill with cream. Sprinkle grated cheese on top. Place the molds in the oven for 20 minutes at about 220 degrees. As soon as the golden crust appears, the dish is ready.

Chicken breast cutlets stuffed with bell pepper and cheese

Since white meat can be a bit dry, a juicy filling of sweet peppers and cheese will come in handy.

We start cooking by preparing the following products:

  1. Chicken breast fillet – 500 grams.
  2. Onions – 1 medium-sized onion.
  3. Stale bread - 1 slice.
  4. Russian cheese – 100 g.
  5. Sweet pepper – 1 pc.
  6. Breadcrumbs.
  7. 2 cloves of garlic.
  8. Oil for frying.
  9. Pepper and salt.

The first stage is preparing the minced meat. To do this, grind the chicken breast in a meat grinder along with pre-soaked stale bread. You can add onion and grind everything together.

The second stage is the filling. Cut the sweet pepper into small cubes. We will not fry it, as it will cook perfectly inside the cutlet. Fry the onion in a frying pan with butter until golden brown. Grate the cheese and mix it with pepper and sauteed onion.

The third stage is to form the cutlets. To do this, with your hands moistened with cold water, take a piece of minced meat and make a flat cake. Place a spoonful of filling in the middle and, closing the edges of the flatbread, form a cutlet. Roll the cutlet in breadcrumbs and fry in hot oil on all sides. Such cutlets always turn out tender due to the juicy filling.

Chicken rolls

Chicken breast rolls are a dietary option, as they do not use breading or frying in oil. The recipe calls for the use of a grill pan.

We will need:

  • chicken breasts 500 gr.;
  • cheese not very salty - 150 g;
  • dill - several sprigs;
  • 1 clove of garlic;
  • spices and salt to your taste.

Mash the cheese with a fork, add garlic and herbs passed through a garlic press. We beat the fillet pieces a little, achieving a layer. Salt the meat a little and put a spoonful of cheese filling in the middle.

Wrap the meat, secure it with a toothpick or cooking string and fry on a hot grill pan on both sides.

Chicken breast baked with pineapples

Chicken breast is a very versatile product. It can be prepared with any vegetables, sauces and fruits. An exquisite recipe for chicken fillet with pineapples will please any gourmet.

We take the following products:

  • chicken fillet – half a kilogram;
  • a small jar of canned pineapple rings;
  • good mayonnaise to taste;
  • any grated cheese – 200 g;
  • 2 small onions;
  • salt and spices.

Cut the chicken breast into pieces and beat lightly. Pepper and salt the meat, coat with mayonnaise. Place the pieces in a heat-resistant mold, greased with oil. Place a little onion on each serving piece, place a piece of pineapple on top and sprinkle with cheese. Having prepared all the meat in this way, place the mold in the oven for half an hour, setting the temperature to 220 degrees. The resulting golden crust will let you know that the dish is ready.

Chicken breast in a pot

Chicken breast dishes in a pot always remain incredibly juicy and aromatic, since all the juices are in the pot and do not evaporate during cooking.

Ingredients of the dish:

  • chicken fillet – 450-500 g;
  • potatoes – 4 pcs.;
  • onions – 3 pcs.;
  • sweet pepper – 1 pc. (large);
  • mushrooms (for example, champignons) 130-150 g.

Cut the chicken breast into pieces and the onion into half rings. Cut the washed and peeled potatoes into small cubes. Cut the pepper into small strips. Finely chop the mushrooms and fry a little in a frying pan.

Let's start filling the pot. Place pieces of meat on the bottom, salt and pepper. Then there are layers of potatoes, mushrooms and sweet peppers. Add a little more salt, cover with a lid and place in the oven for 60 minutes, setting the temperature to 180 degrees. You can add mayonnaise and cheese to the pot to taste.

Secrets of cooking chicken breast

  1. When you bake a breast with skin and bone, you can coat it with the following sauce: soy sauce, garlic and a drop of honey. This unique glaze will preserve the juiciness of the meat and guarantee a crispy golden crust.
  2. Marinade for white meat. The base is a couple of ripe tomatoes, ground in a blender. Add grated garlic, dill, and salt to them. Marinate pieces of meat in this sauce for half an hour. Then you can fry them or stew them with vegetables.
  3. Pieces of meat will remain juicy if kept in cream or milk. You can also use kefir. Dairy products saturate the fibers of meat and make it juicy and tender.
  4. Lemon marinade. Spicy herbs are mixed with lemon juice and rubbed onto the chicken fillet. Let the meat sit for at least half an hour. The taste of the finished dish is reminiscent of barbecue. This can be a quality replacement for fatty pork.
  5. Fry the chicken chops over high heat for one minute on each side. Then the juice will not escape and will remain inside.
  6. Instead of bread, oatmeal is added to minced chicken. They will absorb moisture and the cutlet will remain juicy.
  7. When we cook broth from white meat, we need to decide whether we need a tasty broth or whether the taste of the meat is more important. If broth is important, then place the breast in cold water and cook as usual. If you want tasty meat, then add bay leaf, garlic and salt to the water. After boiling, put the breast fillet in there and cook for 20 minutes over low heat.
  8. Fresh greens for cooking breasts are used without stems.
  9. If you did not fry the pieces of meat before putting them in the oven, then increase the cooking time in the oven by 15 minutes.

Using these recipes and secrets, you can always please your loved ones with healthy, beautiful and tasty chicken breast dishes. And if you are not too lazy to decorate them, then triumph is guaranteed.

If you use beer instead of water, you will get an incredibly aromatic beer batter

Preparation:

1. It is very important to cut the fillet into thin, long strips. This will allow them, on the one hand, to fry faster, and on the other hand, to be large enough so that you can cook them one at a time.


2. Prepare the batter by mixing egg, water, flour and salt. The mixture should be quite thick, the consistency of sour cream.


3. Place the fillet in a separate bowl with flour and carefully roll each strip in flour, then lower it and coat it in the prepared batter.


4. We will make a deep fryer from an ordinary deep frying pan or saucepan. To do this, simply pour enough vegetable oil into the selected container so that the fillet pieces are completely drowned in it and heat it over high heat.

Place pieces of meat one at a time into the heated oil. If they stick together in the pan, separate them from each other with a fork.


5. When the batter turns golden and the oil begins to sizzle strongly, this will mean that the chicken has begun to release juice. From this moment we time it for one minute, after which we take out the resulting chicken fingers. It will take about 6 minutes to do everything.


Do not add all the prepared meat at once, cook in small portions of 3-4 pieces so that the strips do not stick together

6. Ready-made sticks can be eaten immediately hot, dipped in cheese or other favorite sauce. Just don't get burned.

Chicken breast in bacon in a frying pan without oil

Well, I left my favorite recipe for last. This is chicken wrapped in bacon. A wonderful recipe for which you don’t need anything other than fillet and strips of bacon (they are also called Hungarian). This is a great appetizer for the holiday table.


Preparation:

All you need to do is take thin strips of ham (available in any supermarket in vacuum packaging) and wrap thinly sliced ​​chicken fillets in them.


And then fry them in a frying pan for 5-7 minutes on each side over medium heat. There is no need to add oil to the pan, because... the bacon will release enough fat to prevent the meat from burning.


To prevent the bacon from unrolling, place the rolls in the pan so that the side where the tip of the wrapped bacon sticks out sticks out first.

Ready. No complications or a large list of ingredients. And the taste is simply indescribable. I highly recommend that you prepare these chicken rolls for the holiday table of your next celebration.

Well, my top ten best chicken breast recipes in a frying pan are finished.
