We have been eating chicken all our lives, but it didn't come to us how this tasty meat can adapt to different cooking methods. To satisfy our curiosity, here are some of the most common ways to cook with chef recipes:

1. Shallow-Frying

One of the most popular methods, shallow-frying cooks the chicken by soaking it in about one inch of oil. The chicken is allowed to cook, and as the first side is done, the meat is turned over to cook the other side.

2. Braising

Braising involves the cooking of large cuts of chicken by partially soaking it with liquid  such as  broth,  cider,  or  wine.  The cooking   is  done gradually  and at   low temperature. This results in a very tender, delicious meat.

3. Grilling

Grilling is done by cooking chicken meat over direct heat. It is the fastest method that is applicable to all cuts of meat. Even whole chicken can be grilled provided it is  opened  at   the  middle.  Grilled   chicken   tastes   the  best  when   it   is  marinated before cooking and brushed with cooking oil or something that can add flavor to it.
