How Do You Best Like Chicken Prepared?
 

Recently we found it necessary to cook up some chicken on short notice,
and there happened to be a copy of Mark Bittman's "How To Cook Everything"
on hand. He recommended baking it quickly (20 minutes at 500F) with
a minimal amount of tomato/broth/herbs around it. Turned out excellent.
(These re bone-in skinless breasts, which was all the local butcher had.)

There is only one small butcher in Saluda, North Carolina and this
is what he had.

May be a regional sort of thing.

I noticed that compared to boneless chicken breasts, they do not
flop around, curl up, or otherwise change their shape as much while
you are cooking them. Maybe there is some sort of advantage to this.

I don't have a problem with skinless, boneless chicken breasts doing
anything weird either... except for the fact that I don't like white
meat as well as I like dark ( which I prefer skinless and boneless
too) - they're fine.
