Useful tips and tricks

To prepare a delicious dish, you need to choose quality chicken. First of all, it is important to evaluate the appearance of the bird - a good product of a beautiful soft pink shade without blue. If the meat has a yellowish tone, then the chicken was probably old. There should be no feathers, broken bones or large amounts of blood. Preference should be given to a medium-sized product, since in this case the likelihood of purchasing poultry raised with the use of hormones is less.

The meat should be elastic - when pressed it will regain its shape. If possible, you should evaluate the smell of the ingredient in the dish - it should not be sour, rotten or reminiscent of dampness.

Chicken in a frying pan according to the recipes listed above will turn out delicious if the bacon is chosen correctly. The product should be light brown or dark in color. A yellowish and orange tint indicates unnatural smoking and long storage at the point of sale. It is better to select bacon that is not too thickly sliced ​​from the central part of the cut for the dish - such processed pork meat will be less fatty and more crispy when cooked.

Depending on what the product was smoked with, its taste and aroma depend. The hickory-smoked ingredient in the dish has a classic flavor that many people know. If smoking was carried out on cherries, then the taste of bacon is much softer and weaker. Pork cooked with applewood has a subtle fruity flavor. The better the product, the fewer components it contains. Ideally, in addition to pork, the dish ingredient may contain brown sugar, salt and water.
