[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The huge chicken breasts you see now are really uneven in thickness and so it's hard to cook evenly which messes up the texture. I try to slice them in half in and then use a mallet to pound them to an even thickness, or cut them into even pieces for a stir fry. I also try to cook them hot and fast--like drop them into a screaming hot pan, grill or wok and pull it as soon as its done.[/quote] I think this is a good point. They do vary a lot in thickness. When I bake them they turn out dry because I tend to err on the side of doneness with poultry in general. I cut them up into even size pieces and simmer in a pan which consistently turns out well and as expected. I like the idea of using a mallet to get them to a uniform thickness before baking. I'll have to try that.[/quote]
