How do I cook boneless skinless?
To poach boneless, skinless chicken breasts, place them in a large skillet and add 1 to 2 cups of water or chicken broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and cook for 9 to 14 minutes until chicken reaches 160 F. You can also poach in the oven by placing chicken in a single layer in a roasting pan.
- Step 1: Prep the chicken. To start, brine your chicken in a mixture of water and a few tablespoons of salt for about 20-30 minutes.
- Step 2: Season the chicken. When your chicken is done brining, drain the brine and blot the chicken breasts completely dry with a paper towel.
- Step 3: Bake.
- Step 4: Rest.
