Chicken Breast Recipe Tip
Cutting Boards

	When working with raw chicken, use a separate cutting board from the one you use for other foods. Never use a wood cutting board, use a nonporous board like plastic. When you are finished, wash the board in the dishwasher or in hot soapy water.

Chicken Breast Recipe Tip
Crushed Cornflakes

	Cornflakes offer a nice crunch and a neutral flavor making them ideal for breading chicken breasts. Potato chips also work very well, adding some saltiness and crunchy texture. Crushed crackers and bread crumbs can also be used with great success. Experiment with your favorite brand of cereal, chip cracker or bread crumb and create new flavor combinations.
