Because they&#8217;re lean meat , hardly any fat , and high in protein .

If you know how to cook it right , you&#8217;ll have a moist n juicy meat . That&#8217;s why meat thermometer is essential with cooking chicken breast because you don&#8217;t want to overcook it , as well as you don&#8217;t want undercook it . When I roast chicken breast I set my thermometer to 163 F , it&#8217;ll look still after you take it out . 165 F is the goal . <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this recipe is basically braising chicken , so even without  thermometer wouldn&#8217;t be a problem if you don&#8217;t have any , it&#8217;s not as big of a deal as if you&#8217;d roast it . This recipe is so easy !! And will give you best combination of flavor . My favorite is to serve this on top of rice with vegetables of your choice .
