notes
_ do not over cook the chicken or it will get tough
- the chicken must be brown that mean a high to medium heat . when you put the chicken in the pan it must sizzle
- when browning the chicken, it must not be wet so dry it a bit with paper towel.
-it will taste better if you brown some onion before you brown the chicken( I know that is a NO NO .may be you should try onion powder)
-when you marinate the chicken it must be all cover with the Terriyaki sauce
- it is nice to have frozen chicken breasts in the freezer a lot of dishes can be done with them . very often they have sales: 2 for one specially in Bilo

-Do you know who always said "Bon appetit " after her recipes . your favorite lady Julia Child.

tips

_ some people like me and Jesse do not like the feeling of onion pieces in their food . But onion really bring a delicious flavor to food and I do not know how to cook without them. but they can be chopped very very fine so you won't even detect them in the food or like Tricia do, you may grate them

-In some of my cooking I use wine it is not indispensable but it does bring a little some thing to the food . Do not use cooking wine it is nasty but you may keep in your refrigerator a bottle of white wine and use it when you need it. You can find some wine very cheap for cooking but still good . usually if a wine is not good to drink it is not good to cook. Your mother use some wine very cheap but not bad to drink I know it because I did drink some!
When in a rush it some time hard to use every thing from scratch but it is good to keep from any food that has been process.

-when making braised food like sausage and cabbage it is important to cook the food slowly, use a medium heat and never boil the food

-when a recipe ask for browning a piece of meat before cooking it is important to do it on a very hot stove in a mixture of oil and butter it must be done fast and the meat must be nice and brown. It is a good idea to make sure that the meat is nice and dry it will brown better. You may dry it with a paper towel or simply live it out of the refrigerator for a while.
