How To Tenderize Chicken Breasts
It is very simple to do. For easy cleanup, first cover the chicken with saran wrap for easy cleanup. Then, use meat tenderizer to make the chicken breasts even and thinner.
Thinner chicken breasts will marinate better, as delicious marinade will need less time to make chicken flavorful.
And, if the chicken breasts you have are uneven in thickness, it will be very hard to grill them well. Some parts of the chicken will cook faster than others, which will result in some parts being tough and others being undercooked. When the chicken breasts have the same thickness throughout, it will result in the whole chicken breasts being cooked at the same time, and you will have a juicy delicious chicken breast.
How To Marinate Greek Grilled Chicken
I don’t like to do much clean up, so here is the best way to marinate the chicken without much cleanup. Get a plastic gallon bag. Add chicken and marinade to the bag. Mix them together, to make sure that chicken is covered with the marinade.
Then, put the gallon bag in a big bowl, so that if the bag leaks, the bowl would catch it, and you won’t have a mess on your hands. Then, put the bowl with chicken in the fridge. That’s it, such easy cleanup!
