The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. The breast is the leanest part of the whole chicken. It can be boiled, baked, fried, or minced for cutlets, meatballs, and so on. If you decide to bake it in the oven, it's important not to overcook it and to choose the right temperature. Chicken breast marinates very well, so prepare any marinade to your liking.
