1
Chicken breast is only dry because you're cooking it wrong.
2
I'm going to show you the five best methods for cooking chicken breast.
3
The first method is the most simple, and that is poached.
4
Poached chicken has a terrible reputation.
5
Most people think of it and think dry, bland food.
6
But that's because most people bake their chicken before shredding it.
7
This method keeps it nice and juicy.
8
All we're doing here is adding a few chopped vegetables to a pot, along with a few aromatics, and then we add in our chicken breasts and make sure they're fully covered with some chicken stock.
9
It doesn't have to be homemade, but bonus points if it is.
10
Then we'll add a ring of parchment paper, also known as a cartouche.
11
Cover it with a heatproof bowl to make sure everything stays submerged.
12
Then toss on our lid and over to the heat we go.
13
We'll bring this up to a simmer, and once it's there, set a timer for a minute and 30 seconds, and monitor your flame to keep it at that simmer.
14
And once that time is up, turn off your heat and let this completely cool to continue cooking that chicken breast all the way through.
15
The reason we finish cooking it in here is that it stays in that liquid the entire time, so it's never losing that moisture and becoming dry.
16
Once cooled completely, I like to check that my poached chicken is done by cutting through the thickest part of the breast.
17
And just look at how juicy that is.
18
This chicken is also so good for shredding.
19
Watch how easy it is for me to just simply pull it apart like that.
20
But there's something special about good poached chicken.
21
I think my favorite way to have it is sliced nice and thin on a big hot bowl of ramen.
22
Our next method is the most popular in so many places, and that is oven baked.
23
We'll begin by making a quick compound butter.
24
This is a flavor-packed, well-seasoned butter that'll help to make much better baked chicken.
25
And all you do is just blend some of your favorite herbs and spices into some slightly softened butter.
26
You can keep it just like this, or if you want to do the fancy chef move, you can roll it up into a tube of compound butter like this.
27
But regardless of what you choose, the next step is to pound the chicken just very lightly
28
on the thicker part of the breast to get it as even in thickness as possible.
29
Notice I'm not even touching the thinner side here.
30
We're not trying to make some thin cutlet.
31
We're just trying to get it to cook evenly.
32
Because this is the most popular way to cook chicken, this is also where most of the world's dry chicken comes from.
33
Every step that I'm showing you here will hopefully make for juicier chicken all around the world.
34
Once that chicken's prepped, we'll slice our compound butter into a few thin medallions, or if you didn't make a compound butter here, you can use regular butter,
35
and then carefully push that butter under the chicken skin, trying not to fully separate the skin from the breast while you do it.
36
Finish it off by seasoning your breasts with whatever seasonings you want.
37
I love making chicken so much that I actually made my own chicken seasoning called Golden Gourmet.
38
Don't forget that just like with a steak, we want to season all sides.
39
And for cooking, just so nothing sticks, we'll swap it onto parchment paper.
40
And then into the oven we go at 425 Fahrenheit for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until your chicken looks done.
41
If you watch carefully here, you can see that bubbling of that butter inside the skin.
42
It's almost kind of butter-basing itself the entire time it cooks.
43
This right here will ruin all other oven-baked chicken for you.
44
And normally we'd want to let this rest, but I'm just so curious to cut one open now to see how much juice really holds inside
45
that skin when we cook it.
46
This one pretty much speaks for itself.
47
Listen to that crispy skin.
48
It really is just the most beautiful, well-rounded piece of oven baked chicken.
49
Earlier I said you could skip the compound butter, but now I'm taking that back.
50
Don't skip the compound butter.
51
As you can imagine, oven roasted chicken is extremely versatile, but I like having it as a weeknight dinner with whatever random sides or vegetables I might have in my fridge.
52
Our next method is a delicious one, a beautiful fried cutlet.
53
We'll begin by butterflying our chicken breasts, cutting carefully through the center and then cutting each one in half.
54
Then place them into a ziploc bag and using a mallet or even a small pan, pound them out until they're even and thin.
55
For the breading process, we'll have three different stations.
56
First, flour with a bit of salt and pepper or whatever seasonings you want.
57
Then a few whole eggs, whisked until no streaks remain, and finally some panko breadcrumbs.
58
Do the breading process in order.
59
First, into the flour, or you just want to tap it around a little bit
60
and give it that nice light first coat.
61
Don't forget to give it a little shake as well.
62
Then into the egg, but here's where you want to switch hands because we don't want to bread our fingers.
63
We want to bread the chicken, where I'll just move it around to make sure it's fully coated here.
64
And finally, with that same hand, into the panko breadcrumbs, where I'll switch hands again to get it fully coated.
65
This is my dry hand.
66
This is my wet hand.
67
Once it's been fully coated, lay it off to the side to rest while you do the rest of your chicken.
68
Learning how to make a good fried cutlet is easy.
69
I find the hard part to be making a good fried cutlet without destroying your kitchen.
70
Oftentimes when you're breading things and frying things in oil, it splatters all over the place.
71
But if you stay organized like I'm doing here and clean as you go, it's actually not that bad.
72
I like to let these rest for about 10 minutes before I fry, just to let that coating really stick.
73
I'm just going to add in a layer of high smoke point oil about half the height of my chicken.
74
Get that nice and hot over about medium heat.
75
And once that oil is nice and hot and begins to shimmer, in we go.
76
When I cook chicken like this, I want it to be perfect golden brown.
77
So I'm constantly rotating the pan on the heat, changing that heat level, depending on what's happening, checking my chicken at all times, looking at the edges, smelling,
78
using every scents I possibly have to make sure this does not burn.
79
And you'll notice that only a few of those small little crumbs have fallen off the breading.
80
That's because we gave it that 10 minute rest.
81
Once fully golden brown, we'll carefully flip each piece.
82
I'll add in some butter and then butter base with that butter oil mixture to give us an incredible flavor.
83
An amazing top-notch cutlet will also start to bubble up like this.
84
And this separation between the crust and chicken will give you an extra light and crispy coating.
85
When the cutlets have reached that beautiful golden brown color, remove them from the oil and drain on a wire rack.
86
I rarely let these rest.
87
I like them extremely hot, so I cut them open right away.
88
Oh, that hurt my hand, but it was so juicy though.
89
Did you guys see that juice?
90
I think having those simple, perfect layers doesn't allow the chicken to lose a single drop of moisture.
91
I love using a good chicken cutlet for a chicken katsu curry or a milanesa like this.
92
Again, it's so incredibly versatile.
93
Our next method is one you'll want to make every week for the rest of your life, and that is pan seared.
94
First, into a bowl with some salt and sugar, which I'll cover with just enough warm water to dissolve it.
95
What we're making right now is a brine for our chicken.
96
It's going to keep our chicken nice and juicy as we cook it.
97
Then we'll toss in a few aromatics.
98
I'm using garlic, bay leaf, thyme, rosemary, and a few black peppercorns.
99
Then I'll add in a big handful of ice, enough to cool this mixture down.
100
We don't want to be cooking our chicken while it brines.
101
And in goes our chicken.
102
This step took me just two minutes.
103
It's going to make a massive difference in the final dish.
104
Well, now that I think about it, we do have to cover it up and put it in the fridge for about an hour.
105
Again, for the final result, I think it is more than worth it.
106
And once it's fully brined, it's time to cook.
107
One of the keys to getting that skin nice
108
and crispy is making sure everything is very dry before it goes into the pan.
109
To cook, stainless steel or cast iron pan, add a good solid layer of high smoke point oil and bring it up to high heat.
110
And once that oil begins to shimmer, I like to dry my chicken once more and then make sure
111
that skin is spread evenly across all the meat before laying it down carefully away from me.
112
Then immediately, I'm going to turn my heat down to about medium high now
113
and place down a weight to make sure my chicken has full, even contact across the pan.
114
And if I smell or notice anything even remotely starting to burn, I'll turn it down even lower.
115
This is when you really want to monitor that heat, but also be patient.
116
I'm also going to rotate my pan occasionally to make sure all that heat is spread evenly.
117
What I love so much about a pan-roasted chicken is
118
that we're taking something that most people don't consider to be a very fancy protein, and we elevate it in the most simple, beautiful, technique-based way I can possibly think of.
119
Once your chicken comes loose from the pan, lift up all those corners to let some of
120
that oil go under the little areas that it might not have reached before.
121
And then once fully golden, give it a good flip.
122
Then, immediately toss in some butter as well as a few aromatics, because we're gonna finish this chicken by butter basting it.
123
Over and over, let that butter run down all the edges of the chicken.
124
It'll continue crisping up the top, and as that butter turns more of that golden brown color, you'll also get all that nutty flavor that the brown butter brings with it.
125
Oh my gosh, that looks good.
126
To know when your pan-seared chicken's done, take a thermometer, put it into the thickest part of your chicken, chicken and once it reaches 150 degrees Fahrenheit,
127
I'll take it off the heat then place those aromatics right over the top
128
and pour a bit of butter just to let it keep soaking in all that flavor.
129
Once rested you should have crispy skin and once cut open it should be juicy and glistening.
130
I'd like to enjoy this one plated over some fresh handmade pasta
131
but as you can imagine it also works on just about anything.
132
The final method is the most challenging but also the most rewarding and that is a stuffed chicken breast.
133
We'll begin by making a small cut in the side of
134
the chicken The goal here is to create a pocket big enough to stuff the chicken breast, but not so big that everything falls out the side.
135
And once it has a nice pocket like this, I'll lay down a piece of ham, then add on a piece of Swiss cheese and tightly roll it up, at which point I'll slide it into the chicken breast.
136
Now I'll lay down some plastic wrap on a clean work surface
137
and add down my chicken and roll it up as tight as I possibly can.
138
This is a very important step here.
139
We need to make sure everything is held in place.
140
This goes straight into the fridge to set, and after about two hours, We'll carefully unroll it and dredge it in some seasoned flour, egg, and panko breadcrumbs.
141
And then we'll repeat this same exact process once more, since for this recipe, we want it double breaded.
142
To cook, grab an oven-safe stainless steel or cast iron pan and fill it with a high smoke point neutral oil.
143
Then turn your heat up to medium high.
144
And once the oil begins to shimmer, carefully place down your stuffed chicken breast.
145
The goal of this step here is to get some nice color on your cordon bleu.
146
I also like to add in a few cubes of butter for that nice buttery flavor.
147
So here, just carefully roll it around on all sides.
148
Once you feel it's got nice color all around, place this into the oven at 350 Fahrenheit for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until the thickest part of your chicken reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit on a thermometer.
149
When I cut this open, it should have some nice molten cheese on the inside.
150
Swiss is my least favorite cheese, and I really don't like deli meat ham, yet something about this dish is just so, so good.
151
I don't think I even need to plate this one since it's already fancy enough, but I'm gonna do it anyway.
152
Now go out there and make the best chicken breast you've ever had.
153
That said, I'm probably not going to have chicken for a good month or so after this video.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
