Hi All!

We're loading you up with a Chicken Kiev recipe for you which you can serve up with any of your favorite sides. It's simple but this breast of chicken is stuffed with a flavorful compound butter and fried, makes its own sauce; when you slice into the chicken, the melted butter is released onto the plate. Although a standard Kiev you can add a bit of cheese, chopped broccoli, cooked wild rice, a thin slice of ham and cheese, or whatever else you please to make it your own.

ENJOY!

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT CHICKEN:

Always freeze uncooked chicken if it is not to be used
within 2 days.

Chicken should not be thawed on the countertop. It
takes about 24 hours to thaw a 4-pound chicken in the refrigerator. Cut-up parts, 3 to 9 hours.

Or for quick thawing of raw or cooked chicken use the microwave. Thawing time will vary according to your microwave.

Chicken may also be safely thawed in cold water. Place chicken in its original wrap or water-tight plastic bag in cold water. Change water often. It takes about 2 hours to thaw a whole chicken.
