Kitchens Tips

Note
If possible, use a large skillet with sloping sides when preparing this recipe. Not only
does this allow you to easily turn the chicken pieces but the larger surface area
speeds up the evaporation of the cooking liquids which, in turn, allows the chicken
to brown more quickly.
Variations
Prepare recipe as directed. Transfer chicken to serving platter, then top with one of
the following options: Spinach-Bacon: Top chicken with 1 cup baby spinach
leaves. Drizzle with sauce; sprinkle with 2 slices cooked and crumbled OSCAR
MAYER Bacon. Tomato-Basil: Top chicken with 1 cup quartered cherry tomatoes.
Drizzle with sauce; sprinkle with 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil.

Heat broiler. Place fish on foil-covered baking sheet. Broil, 6 inches from heat, 7 to 10
min. or until fish flakes easily with fork.
Shortcut
Drain 2 pouches (2.6 oz. each) salmon; use instead of the broiled salmon.
How to Determine When Fish is Cooked
Fish is done when it looks opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Undercooked fish looks
translucent, while overcooked fish looks dry and falls apart.
