Low, Slow, and Totally Sexy Chicken

This chicken is so incredibly easy, amazingly versatile, and fantastically delicious. What it isn't is quick. But still, it's not so bad. You can very easily come home from work, pop it in the oven, take care of the family or things around the house, and take it out in time for dinner.

Sexy Chicken

Preheat the oven to 265. Rub a chicken breast with your favorite seasonings - I recommend salt, pepper, and garlic and wine seasoning (plus cayenne if I'm feeling spicy!). Wrap the chicken in a foil packet, making sure the edges are well sealed. Bake in the oven for 1 hour.

The finished chicken can be served as it, or it can be easily shredded for other uses, like my delicious chicken-spinach go wrap:
Shredded chicken, baby spinach, and marinated mozzarella, melted in the oven for a crispy crunch on the tortilla!

Watch out, or the cat might steal it! That's how good this chicken is!

  1. If you're looking for a chicken fix that's ready to go as soon as you get home from work, try sticking the bird in a slow cooker on low heat before you leave for work. TASTY BUSINESS.

  2. See, I love the crockpot, but - and this is nasty - I have to put it in the bathroom if I'm going to leave it on while I'm at work. Because if I leave it anywhere else, the demon cat gets his paws into it. The crockpot lid is no match for Nittany!
