I'm 41 years old and consider myself a fairly good cook. But I cannot for the life of me cook a single chicken breast and have it taste of anything other than rubber. Tonight dh and I are having musakhan ( sumac chicken) with flat breads. Ours will be tasty because the chicken is plastered in an onion and sumac paste. I've cooked baked potatoes and roast chicken breast for the dcs and their dinner was virtually in edible the chicken was so chewy. I put it in a dish with a bit of water and covered it in tin foil in the hope of keeping it moist.
So is there a way of cooking just one chicken breast or do I need to roll it in bacon forever?
