GlimmerPhoenix+FollowSave Money: Debone Chicken Breasts at HomeMake sure your chicken breast is fully thawed—deboning frozen chicken is just a mess. Place the chicken skin side up on a clean cutting board. If there’s extra wing or leg meat, trim it off. Slice lengthwise into the thickest part to find the breastbone. Use a sharp chef’s knife for smooth cuts. Peel off the skin with your fingers or cut it if needed. Locate the bone running down the middle. Slide your knife along one side of the bone, scraping gently to separate the meat. Repeat on the other side. Remove any extra fat, skin, or cartilage. Save the bones for homemade stock if you want. It’s really not hard once you get the hang of it! #ChickenHacks #HomeCooking #SaveMoney #Food #Cooking10Share
VoyageVortex+FollowMind-blowing find! Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are such a steal!As a college grad living on my own, I figured out pretty quick that bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are a steal. My friend paid way too much for boneless, skinless ones, but I get more for less and use every bit. I stash the skins and bones in freezer bags—skins for shmaltz (amazing for frying potatoes) and bones for broth. It’s wild how much flavor and value you get from what most folks toss. I don’t waste a thing, and my grocery bill stays low. This method’s kept me fed and my wallet happy through some tight months. #Food knowledge #BudgetCooking #ChickenHacks40Share
