It is cold and raining, so I made homemade pototo soup with baked breaded chicken breast sandwiches. It was comfort food for me today.

A bit chilly today..rain for the next few days after a SNOW fall on Sunday! So I made Beef Barley Soup. Daughter, SIL and grand kids are going to come down she is bringing Grilled Cheese sandwiches to go with the soup. I do have a jar of Horseradish ready for my bowl of soup!
And there will be enough for the next day or so even after a big container goes home with the gang.

I have to admit when I first read that I was thinking of the heinz zoodles in a can that we used to give the kids and I was like - "chicken alfredo over zoodles🤔?"

Chicken Alfredo over zoodles. Hubs wanted low carb. Mother is not a fan of zoodles, but she seemed to like the chicken alfredo -- it had bacon -- of course she did 👍

CWillie,
Those carbs can be deceiving.
Adding up points daily, I get 23/ day.
A Panera Bread cinnamon skone has 25 points on my eating well plan.
A chicken breast has zero points!

CW, I don't usually get the chicken breasts, but go for the thighs instead since it's a more fatty and flavorful piece. Aldi has a big bag of frozen thighs for around $5-6 USD and I can take 1-2 out at a time to defrost, then I usually pan fry them in some seasoned oil, browning each side before letting them cook for 10 mins or so until cooked through. I really like them, they're tasty and juicy.

Kirkwood brand, ice glazed boneless skinless chicken thighs, 3lb bag. So tasty, so easy when cooking for one. :-)

The same brand sells bags of frozen seasoned chicken breasts, too. I'll bet those would be good. But in general, I just eat the darker chicken meat cuts because I prefer them.

Ahh...my Mom used to make the BEST homemade burgers. I've tried, but to no avail. So, rotisserie chicken and salad now. Not as much fun, but it is how it is. Lol.

Made home made hamburger(s) last night by cooking a huge square to match the size of the Milton's whole grain bread, toasted, melted cheese, avocado, and mayonnaise.

Sometimes, frozen chicken breasts are chewy, no matter how you cook it.

In a zip-lock freezer bag, I put them in a warm pan of water to defrost, just enough to where they are still cold, but not frozen. Do not forget them, if you are not ready to cook them, refrigerate in the bag.
If you cook an entire chicken breast, it should be done (in a frying pan with olive oil) in about 20 minutes. I add ten minutes, cooked slowly on low heat because the middles may still be frozen a bit or very cold to cook through and through, and I want to be sure it is cooked, forget the thermometer, I hate them.

You can also cook a chicken breast faster, or check for doneness, by cutting them up almost done, as if you were making chicken tenderloins, which are thinner, takes less time (15 minutes).

Or, cooking for o n e person, just buy the frozen tenderloins instead.

Either way, I think not over-loading the pan helps, allowing room between pieces.
Put a lid on it, raises the heat. Soy sauce helps tenderize, but I like the taste without it too.

Think, Brown, saute, then simmer til done.

Urgh, my dinner was horrible☹️.
Does anybody know how to cook those frozen boneless chicken breasts so they don't end up chewy and tasteless? (I used a thermometer so it shouldn't have been overdone)
