Chicken breasts are one of the most popular and accessible types of meat for cooking. However, to make them truly tasty and juicy, it is important to marinate them properly. In this recipe, I will tell you how to prepare the best marinade for chicken breasts to achieve the perfect result!
Why marinate chicken breasts?
Marinating is a process that helps to intensify the flavor of meat and ensure that it is juicy. Marinating enriches the meat with various flavors and also softens it. Chicken breasts tend to be dry unless the correct preparation technique is applied, and marinade is a great way to prevent this.
Ingredients:
To make this delicious marinade you will need:
600g chicken breast: Preferably fresh for optimal flavour.
1 egg: The chives help improve the texture and hold the marinade on the meat.
50g sour cream: Adds creaminess and a rich flavour.
Salt: For seasoning, it will greatly enhance the flavour of the chicken.
Black pepper: For a spice that will add a kick.
30g plain flour: For coating, it will add crunch when frying.
Frying fat: Various types of vegetable fat such as sunflower oil or rapeseed oil.
Preparation:
Follow the following steps to prepare perfect chicken breasts:
1. Prepare the chicken breasts
First, wash the chicken breasts under running water and pat dry with a paper towel. Make sure they are well washed, as this helps remove dirt and ensure the meat is fresh.
Then, slice the chicken breasts into thin slices. Thin slices marinate faster and more evenly, ensuring they retain moisture while cooking.
2. Prepare the marinade
In a bowl, mix together the egg, sour cream, salt, and black pepper. These ingredients will create a creamy marinade that will adhere perfectly to the chicken.
