My Chicken Breasts recipe

Well, new member in our cheesecake for all family joined us today ! My new Nikon D3000 10 MP, Digital SLR camera. Also I’d like to welcome its partner 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens. I got this professional camera as a birthday “in advance, my birthday date is Nov, 14″ present. Since I started this blog, all the pictures were taken by my sister’s canon DSLR camera “Now I’m using both in parallel. well, I need some time to be familiarized with the new one“. By the time “I think” my family found that I’m so passionate in picturing and blogging food stuff, and really committed to this blog. So they decided to buy me my own camera, to have more fun. And also to release (which I still have it) the canon camera and return it back to my sister. Poor girl, since I started the blog she couldn’t take a single shot. Thanks for all who cared and bought this camera for me. I really love you and care about all of you .. I hope your pictures will appear one day in this blog :)

But for you Dalal “my sister who lend me her canon camera”, a very special thanks for your supportive and cooperative feelings and actions. I will never forget your generosity. Specially that you “again” lend me your macro lens for my Nikon camera. I hope that one day you read these words, and know that it is from my heart. I appreciate what you have done, do and will do for me as a loving sister. Love you all.

The story behind this recipe, is LUCK .. I’m not a professional cook to create my own recipe. But the luck was the real cook for this recipe. Believe me “the luck/he/she or even it .. whatever you want to call it” a very good cook. The taste is awesome, although the ingredients are simple but the technique is in the way of cooking. A few seconds will make a very big difference in the taste.

The ingredients are

3  boneless, skinless chicken breasts halves

1 onion chopped

3 to 4 tablespoons mustard

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 garlic clove chopped

1 lemon juiced

Preparing the spicing sauce

Wash the chicken breasts with warm filtered water. In medium seized bowl mix the chopped onion with salt and pepper. Then add the garlic and mix all using tablespoon. Add the mustard and the lemon juice when all ingredients mixed together and stir. The spicing sauce is now ready. Put the breasts in the same bowl you are using and dip them in the spicing sauce. Ensure that the whole breast is covered. Keep in the refrigerator for 12 hours.

Cooking the chicken breasts

Place the chicken breasts with the spicing sauce in medium sized skillet. Adjust the heat between low and medium.  Lower heat results better taste, although it takes longer time. Close the skillet with a cover. Keep the chicken breasts to cook,  all the water inside the breasts should evaporate. Wait till the breasts take dark brown color, be careful don’t burn! when the breasts color becomes dark brown add a cup of water and turn the breasts to the other side. Cover and wait again for the water to evaporate and the other side have the same color. Now add another cup of water and cover. Every 2 to 3 minutes flip the breasts to the other side. This process will ensure that you will get a very well done dish in-addition to the great taste. Keep flipping until all the cup of water evaporates. Using a fork test the breasts if they are well done or not. If the whole fork inserted easily into the chicken, that’s mean your food is ready to be served. If not, add another cup of water and repeat the process.

When you finish, put the chicken breasts in a plate with the spicing sauce and serve directly.

enjoy with love,
