    Did this for dinner tonight. I let sit for closer to 1.5 -2 hours because I didn't time it right with having to leave the house. I added onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and smoked paprika prior to cooking. I accidentally cooked it to 165, but it turned out wonderfully anyway. It was honestly the best chicken breast (tender, juicy, buttery) I've ever made for myself. "Restaurant Quality" is accurate. Thank you for this! I usually sous vide chicken breast but honestly this was better! 2 of my kids asked for seconds which they never do with chicken breast.

    This has to be the most eloquently put video about chicken. Everything from pounding flat, brining (dry vs wet) to browning (sticking to the pan), to internal temperature (155) and resting (molecules). Every basic question is addressed and explained... everyone trying to cook chicken breast properly should watch this.

    From what I've researched on dry brining... If you leave it for like 45 mins or a bit longer, that little bit of moisture that you wiped off would also be absorbed back into the meat and the surface would eventually be dryer, that moisture is the chicken juice which has flavour too... And we would all love some more flavour ofcourse 😌... Also its better to dry brine on a rack over a rimmed baking sheet cause I'm positive that the paper towel is soaking up more of those juices too 🤷‍♂️

    Thank you for the video! Enjoyed your sense of humor! How do I cook my chicken breast? In the Air Fryer for about 40 minutes on 360 degrees. That's why I'm here. No matter how long I cooked it, it just wouldn't get juicy.

    • @nahf4m
      @nahf4m Год назад +1

      The trick to chicken is a higher temperature and less time, especially with white meat. Try 425 degrees for 20 minutes and check your temp. I usually pull chicken off heat at around 155-160 degrees internal as the meat will continue to heat that extra bit during the rest. Good luck!

    155 degrees? Why not 165? I always heard 165 degrees is what was needed to be safe

    • @celestecelestial90
      @celestecelestial90 2 года назад +1

      When you take it out at 155 and let it rest for 3 to 4 minutes, the temperature of the chicken will rise to 165. Another channel did a video on it. I think the channel is called More Seasoning Please.

    I’d definitely cook the chicken to 158-160 I know 165 is what they say but it is hit or miss and could be slightly dry 155 uuuhhhhh thats a little risky.

      155 degrees for 45 seconds has the same results as 165 degrees for 5 seconds.
