Start out with 4 chicken breasts. If your freezer is well-stocked and you have a little freezer space, you can find better deals on chicken thighs than breasts.
Whole Chicken or Whole Chicken Parts?
The chicken debate continues. I’m torn on this because I love chicken! But I’m also a huge advocate of eating whole foods. I prefer whole chicken and you don’t have to worry about how it’s prepared. And you get all of the nutrients that are in the chicken.
How to Clean Your Crock Pot
Crock pots are great for cooking because they are low-maintenance and portable. Crock pots are one of the safest cooking methods available. However, they can get very messy, especially if you use some spices and seasonings. If you use a non-stick pan, cleaning it after using it is easy. If you use a pan with a coating, the best way to clean it is to use a dishwasher. Clean the oven with a cleaning solution. Never use soap or chlorine bleach. Only use baking soda, which won’t ruin the coating on the pan.
Storing the Whole Chicken or Pieces
When I cook dinner, my family is sometimes a little confused about what chicken I’m making. I try to serve them the same way, but occasionally I do something different. This has been especially true with chicken and noodles. I’ve always made it for my family where I remove the chicken from the crockpot and make chicken broth to add to the noodles or use the broth to make gravy. However, I’m always looking for ways to add some flavor and this is my latest invention.
