I've loathed grilling chicken breast for ages now. Is something
that's almost always diced up and cooked on a griddle or in a
wok. Exception is made for pounding it thin then rolling it up
with a filling for stuffed chicken breast.
Took a bit of a road trip a couple weeks ago, Western New York
to Eastern Wyoming. Was expecting cool weather and the cabin we
rented there had a kitchenette. Plan was we brought some chicken
breast for a meal and was going to dice, griddle it, and make
wraps. However the further west we got the warmer it got. When
we got to WY (May 11) it was over 90F degrees, was expecting
much much cooler temps.
90 is way to nice to not be cooking outdoors so I sliced the
breasts lengthwise to make them thinner, marinated them for a few
hours, and cooked them over blazing hot direct heat on a grill
nearly constantly flipping them so they didn't char too much.
Came out great they did. Juicy with a perfect char.
I'd rather not grill chicken without bone in it, but am now
happy to know at my ripe old age I figured out how to do breasts
without ruining them. :)

I like to marinate chicken breast in Thai curry paste, oyster sauce,
fish sauce, and whatever else I have on hand. A bit of cornstarch coats
the chicken and keeps it moist during the high temperature frying. I use
a good amount of oil. The chicken comes out tender - it's intense
nuggets of flavor, not bland at all.

Harvard really pissed the fuhrer off, didn't they?
Maybe he could deport all of them to his favorite gulag, to rot till
they die. That would show those damn leftards.

For the first time in my memory, I bought boneless, skinless chicken
breasts the other day. My plan was to pound them and wrap them with something. Meanwhile, they hit their "use by" date.
So...I boiled them, cubed them, froze them and am using them for ramen.
I have always bought whole chickens. Then I started to buy chicken
wings occasionally. That worked out, so I bought the breasts.
That was a bridge too far. I ran out of imagination.

You could also poach a boneless chicken breast and
make chicken salad or even make chicken soup.

It sounds like you had a great trip! Yes, grilling
QUICKLY over a rip-roaring hot grill with lots of
flipping will insure you don't end up with shoe
leather chicken. I hate dry as a bone meat whether
it's chicken, pork, beef, or seafood.

We eat stir fries fairly often. Chicken is the first protein of
choice, pork second, occasionally beef. We always have boneless
chicken breast in the freezer as well as pork loin.

My first cat turned her nose up at canned [people food] tuna after a vet suggested I try to hide a tiny pill in it. She didn't even like canned seafood cat food.
You'll never find me posting a recipe for the ubiquitous tuna noodle casserole or tuna salad.

I have described a number of things as tasting like shit but it is

Since much of the sense of taste is the sense of smell, I think
most of us know what shit or cat food taste like.

i don't. having something acidic to drink like orange juice or
a shot of straight up vinegar helps wash away the taste. if it

most things in my mouth.

You might like Hawaiian cornbread AKA "Waikiki Cornbread." I have no

since I was a kid. If the recipe has pineapple juice in it, it's not Hawaiian. What makes it Hawaiian is a lot of sugar and butter and not
much cornmeal.

People of the South are so proud of their cornbread and so jealous of
the cornbread/cakes of others. All ya'alls can keep your dry, crumbly,
dusty, "bread" all for yourselves. Even the best Southern cornbread is
nasty stuff. I've made it before and it's not really something any baker should be proud of. Mostly that recipe on the back of a box of cornmeal
is there just to sell cornmeal.

You might like Hawaiian cornbread AKA "Waikiki Cornbread." I have no
idea where the recipe was invented but it's stuff that I've had ever
since I was a kid. If the recipe has pineapple juice in it, it's not
Hawaiian. What makes it Hawaiian is a lot of sugar and butter and not
much cornmeal.

It's Bisquick baking mix with a small amount of cornmeal and lots of
sugar added, with some rising agents. It does say it's "cake-like".
One quarter cup, 4
tablespoons, of cornmeal doesn't make it cornbread
even if it's called Moscow or Rio de Janeiro cornbread
or any other name.
But hey, it's Waikiki! Hawaiians know all about cornbread.

People of the South are so proud of their cornbread and so jealous of
the cornbread/cakes of others. All ya'alls can keep your dry, crumbly,
dusty, "bread" all for yourselves. Even the best Southern cornbread is
nasty stuff. I've made it before and it's not really something any baker >should be proud of. Mostly that recipe on the back of a box of cornmeal
is there just to sell cornmeal.

In the Ontario part of Niagara they are most often just called wings. It seems to be only the restaurant chains offering spiced up chicken in sandwiches and salads that call it Buffalo chicken.

of ranch land full of grazing free range cattle. The price of
free range beef is considerably more expensive in Beef Country

It certainly does. Here's one thing that explains it: "We also
experimented with including or leaving out an egg." You cannot possibly
make moist cornbread without egg.
AI says:
"You can make moist cornbread without using an egg—and it can be
just as delicious! The egg normally helps with binding and moisture,
but there are plenty of easy substitutions."
My understanding is that the addition of Portland cement can be used to
help improve the texture of S. cornbread. No egg needed!

I think a tablespoon would work fine. If there's giant bubbles in the
cake, you'll know I was wrong. That recipe was handed over to me by my
wife's friend in college. A meeting was arranged to meet at the back
corner of a Christian Reading Room in the early 70's. Beats me why
handing over a recipe requires an appointment and careful discretion.
The recipe, however, was pretty mind-blowing. 3 cups of Bisquick? 1 cup
of sugar? 1 block of butter? I had never seen anything like it.
OTOH,
I've always been pleased with the results. If you order cornbread in
Hawaii, you're not going to be getting Southern style cornbread. The
Gods and demigods of Hawaii have made it so.
