Tips

  • Control your temperature when cooking chicken breast to prevent drying out. If it's too hot, turn it down.
  • The chicken breast will continue to cook after removal from heat due to carryover cooking. Pull it when it reaches 62°C (145°F) to ensure it reaches at least 65°C (150°F) and remains juicy.
