How Long Can Raw Chicken Sit Out? – Avoiding the Danger Zone<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nWhat to Do With Rubbery Chicken<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Well, what if despite your best efforts your chicken has become rubbery? Or, perhaps you just don’t want to throw out the meal you have prepared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fortunately, there are some tricks that you can try to overcome the rubbery chicken texture of the meat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Serve with Sauce<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This is often the easiest fix. Serve the chicken slathered with a delicious sauce and no one will be the wiser. The trick, though, is to figure out which sauce will work best. I would say to use one that works well with the rest of the food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For instance, eating a lot of grilled foods? Then barbeque sauce will be perfect. Pasta as the main carb? Alfredo sauce should do the trick. Mashed potatoes on the menu? Serve it with gravy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reheat in Broth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You should never use high heat to reheat already dry chicken. Instead, cook or reheat the chicken in some broth. You can choose salted or unsalted depending on how much you have seasoned the chicken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is important to add just the right amount of broth – you don’t want to make it soggy after all. If you want, you can try spritzing the chicken breasts throughout the reheating process instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Use the Chicken in a Sandwich<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Want to make sure that your rubbery chicken isn’t the star of the show? Then, put it in a sandwich! This way you can introduce moisture to the dish via lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. Don’t forget to add lots of mayo or any other flavorful sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is a lot more to rubbery chicken than meets the eye. From the right type of chicken to proper cooking time, there is a lot that you need to get right here. Fortunately, you now know just how to do this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Follow the guidelines above and getting juicy, perfectly cooked chicken will be the new norm for you! Sure it may take a little time to perfect but you will be on the right track at least. Go ahead and get started today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Chicken can be rubbery because of how it is raised as well as how you cook the meat.
