For me it's chicken breast sliced into three thin slices cooked in olive oil and butter on a stove with salt and heavy pepper. What more could a man ask for?

>>20703493please dont be gay in my ass
>>20703584Okay I will respect your boundaries.
>>20703494butter for the flavor olive oil to up the smoke point, not that uncommon
>>20703471i marinate chicken breasts in greek salad dressing, bake them and eat them with rice and mixed frozen vegetables. every other week for 4 years now.
>>20703471By heavy pepper do you mean lots of ground black pepper or something else?I also like to add some combination of paprika, oregano, thyme.
>>20703471chiggin breast confit is a good idea
>>20703614>every other weekSo not very often
>>207039555 times in 2 weeks
>>20704383so not very often

>>20703471>cooking with olive oil>cooking with any oil for that matter>instead of (exclusively) butter, tallow, or lardDamn, Ansel Keys really did a number on the American population...
>>20703471>What more could a man ask for?Herbs

>>20703607What a retard.EVOO has a smoke point between 350 and 400f with better EVOO usually having a lower smoke point.Butter has a smoke point between 300f and 350f and my personal experience it lands much closer to 350f.Good quality EVOO and good quality butter both will smoke around 350f, with EVOO only providing a minor 20-70 degree benefit which generally isn't going to make the difference between smoking and not smoking.I use ghee for higher heat frying with butter, or a mixture of butter and avocado oil.
>>20704498Unironically I eat my pan-seared chicken breast every day.
>>20703474every single thing posted on the internet is instantly responded by some faggot who always has to act like there's only one solution and one option in contrast to the original statement. both breast's and thighs exist for a reason, enjoy both. both require different cooking methods, cooking times, tastes, textures, etc. if you can't enjoy both it's because you're not eating it properly, you're an actual immature tastelet or it's a skill issue and you just can't cook.
>>20704487What herbs would you recommend and how can I include them?
>>20704945I like to use fresh sage, thyme, and rosemary that grow in my herb garden.Sometimes I'll also add a bit of garlic.
>>20704945ones you like.put them on the chicken.in all seriousness, chicken breast is a super versatile meat, basically a blank slate. so pretty much any flavor combination you want will work. basil+oregano, plus a squeeze of lemon for some mediterranean flavor.thyme, sage or rosemary for a more earthy taste.cajun dry rub. the sky's the limit man. anyway, personally I find chicken breast a little bland on its own, I only use it for incorporating into a bigger dish like pasta. but you do you man
