Chicken Breast

Here's one for the meal preppers out there! We know how disappointing it is to be all proud of getting the week's cooking done in one go, only to be just plain sick of that food by Friday. The great thing about a simple salt and pepper chicken breast (aside from being really healthy and almost totally effortless to cook) is that it can be used as a base for a ton of different dishes. But more on that in a bit. The downside of chicken breast's low fat content is that it can end up dry pretty easily, so using a meat thermometer is the key to avoiding that. But not just any meat thermometer! Not only will MEATER let you know when to take your chicken out of the oven to hit the perfect temperature, but the MEATER app will also give you doneness recommendations based on what's going to give you the juiciest result. Since this chicken breast has a really basic salt and pepper seasoning, it goes with almost anything. You can chop up the chicken and put it in salads, soups, pasta, sandwiches, and more. Or if you're in a super minimalist mood, you can just eat it with healthy side dishes like rice and steamed veggies. White wine is best suited for white meat, so pour yourself a glass of something dry like sauvignon blanc or chardonnay.
