Chicken Breast Recipe Tip
Cut Across Grain

	Cut chicken pieces across the grain, producing slices with shorter fibers and more tender pieces.

Chicken Breast Recipe Tip
Grilling Chicken

	Place bony or rib cage sides of the chicken next to the heat first, when grilling. The bones keep chicken from browning to fast, by acting as an insulator.
