      adds no flavors but still adds all the moist wonderfulness that you would expect from a Hunky Brine...This way we can let all the flavors of the recipe come through uncomplicated...

      Holy crapola, is this our Craiger the bowtieman typing here or did he have Lena put this into words for him???

      That looks simply stupendous Craig, i bet the taste of the sauce is exquisite.

      A very fine rendition of a classical entree which I am sure tantalized the taste buds.

        I think I sense some mockery here...I dunno...

        Yeah E I thought that sounded a bit over the top when Lena told me to say it...

        A more accurate SMOKE FREAK response would be "The chicken didn't suck...Y'all oughta try it...It was purty good......

              lol oh yeah. there are goat cheeses that taste like you're sucking on a rank billy goats beard that's in must (or is that just elephants ). They pretty much make me retch.

              And at the other end of the spectrum there are very subtly flavoured goats cheese that I actually quite like.

              I'm assuming you used a fairly mild goat cream cheese as it's not that easy smearing a hard cheese.

                Why not? The brine pretty much guarentees even a grilling-challenged Limey can turn out a good breast

                    Looks and sound great!
                    Did a Google...does this help?


                    Original Carrabba's Chicken Bryan (Not Copycat!)
                    2 servings
                    2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
                    kosher salt, to taste
                    fresh ground pepper, to taste
                    olive oil
                    4 ounces goat cheese
                    6 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
                    2 -4 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
                    4 teaspoons onions, minced
                    4 teaspoons garlic, minced
                    8 tablespoons butter, divided
                    6 tablespoons white wine
                    1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 1 large lemon's worth)

                    Directions:

                    1 Brush chicken on both sides with olive oil, season to taste with Kosher salt and cracked pepper.
                    2 Grill chicken until done (internal temp of 165F) - prepare lemon butter sauce while chicken is grilling.
                    3 Sautee onion and garlic in 2 Tbps butter until soft and fragrant.
                    4 Add white wine and lemon juice, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 10 minutes to reduce.
                    5 Add remaining 6 Tbsp butter, a little at a time, until it melts and mixture is emulsified.
                    6 Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and basil, heat until hot (but do not overheat or sauce may break).
                    7 Top nearly-done chicken breasts with 2 oz each of the goat cheese until cheese warms and softens.
                    8 To serve, spoon lemon butter sauce over chicken breasts.

                        chicken breast is the least flavourful part of the chicken.
                        Texture isn't great and it's about twice the price of thigh - which is infinitely better flavoured, better texture and better colour.

                        I just don't see the point of cooking with chicken breast when there are cheaper, better alternatives from the same animal.

                        Not a cooking issue.

                        I doubt I'll ever understand modern societies obsession with chicken breast. It does seem to be that it's popular because it's particularly flavourless. I suppose it's good for carrying other flavours.

                        I'd just rather eat something that has flavour to start with and work from there :-)

                          My bet: It's also VERY lean and low in cholesterol.... hence, flavor as well

                            Much to my surprise....When Lena was doing the weight watchers thing, thighs were far less points than breast...Everyone thinks that breast is the diet friendly choice but maybe not....
