BROIL instead
Happy Mid-week foodies. So let’s talk healthy eating habits. There is something undeniably tasty about fried meat, but can I suggest an alternative? BROILING. I know! :), who would have thought. Instead of frying your chicken and meat, try broiling it in the oven. I testily it’s just like frying even healthier. Been broiling for 5 years now. The chicken here was cooked for 10 minutes then broiled at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
