Chicken on Sale! _Roast Chicken Breasts & Quick & Easy Asian Chicken Salad


Chicken on Sale this week at $2.99 lb whereas precooked chicken breast slices approx. $6 per lb.  So, in an effort to save money and continue to eat well I have roasted 6 chicken breasts.  One will be used for today’s luncheon but the test will be to see how well they freeze as I would like to place in freezer bags 2 salad portions and use for salads at a later time.
Roast chicken Breasts
Preheat oven to 350
Wash chicken breasts with cold water and pat with paper towel til dry
Place in glass casserole pan
Put some olive oil on hands and rub into chicken breasts to keep them moist while cooking

I keep in oven until I can smell them cooking/calling my name
Approx 30 minutes

Meat should no longer be pink with cut in half with a knife. 
Drain
