Just 6 minutes in the microwave and you've got a juicy chicken steak! It's so moist and tender — perfect for slicing up and using in sandwiches too♪
Ingredients
2 servings- Chicken breast1 piece (about 300g)
- ★Soy sauce1 tbsp
- ★Salt1 tsp
- ★Olive oil1 tbsp
Directions
10 min- 1
Place 1 chicken breast on a microwave-safe plate and spread the ★ seasonings evenly over the entire surface.
- 2
Feel free to add black pepper or grated garlic if you like.
- 3
Cover the plate tightly with plastic wrap and microwave at 600W for 6 minutes.
- 4
After heating, the plastic wrap will have puffed or burst, and the surface of the chicken will have a lightly browned appearance.
- 5
If you have time, let it rest for a few minutes to allow the flavors to settle.
- 6
Slicing the chicken thinly makes it easier to eat and also makes for a more attractive presentation.
- 7
The juices left on the plate can be drizzled over the chicken or used as a dressing for side vegetables.
- 8
Adding 1 tbsp of lemon juice to the leftover juices creates a light dressing — great over the chicken or veggies.
- 9
Drizzling a little extra olive oil over the finished dish makes for an elegant presentation, perfect for entertaining.
- 10
Store in the refrigerator and use the sliced chicken in sandwiches or as thinly sliced meat in a variety of dishes.
Tips
Chicken breasts vary in size, and cooking time can also differ depending on the temperature of the meat. 6 minutes should be sufficient in most cases, but if the chicken isn't fully cooked, add extra time in 30-second increments and check as you go. Once you've made it a few times, you'll get a feel for the perfect timing.
