Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breast: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade will help to infuse the chicken with flavor and keep it moist. Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. If you are cooking the chicken in a skillet, be sure to use a nonstick skillet or spray the skillet with cooking spray to prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.

Conclusion:

Indonesian-style breast of chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful blend of spices and herbs, then grilled or pan-fried until cooked through. Serve the chicken with rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
