Notes

  • Season simply with salt, pepper, and your choice of herbs or spices (garlic powder, paprika, or dried herbs work well)
  • Low temperature cooking keeps the chicken moist and tender.
  • Let it rest after cooking to keep the juices inside and maintain an ender texture.
  • Chill before slicing for clean, thin cuts.
