Chicken Breast Recipe Tip
Extra-Virgin Olive Oil

	The first pressing of olives produces extra-virgin olive oil. This first pressing uses no heat or chemicals to help in the production and delivers the highest quality, most flavorful olive oil. Extra-virgin, virgin, and pure olive oils can be found in supermarkets and specialty stores. Experiment with different brands and styles until you find oils you enjoy eating in raw and cooked food applications.

Romano Cheese

	Romano is a popular Italian cheese known for being hard, salty and sharp tasting. The cheese is normally grated for use in recipes.
