Cooking chicken from frozen?

Question

Is it ok 2 cook a chcken breast that has been defrosted in the microwave? also do you have any good sauces ect. to have with chicken?

Answer 1

Certainly!  The microwave will impart ZERO flavor, so you really need to grill, roast, stir-fry, or pan fry to get some canalization  and flavor on them.

Try teriyaki sauce, bbq sauce, sweet & sour sauce, soy sauce, or honey mustard on your chicken.

Answer 2

Yes, and as a matter of fact, your chicken will be much juicer.  Search foodnetwork.com for great chicken recipes.
