I was in Meijer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ( regional grocery chain) today. I need some whole chicken breast for Chicken Marsalas, one of our favorites. I prefer whole chicken breast because they are half the price of boneless, skinless. With a good sharp boning knife it only takes me about 30 seconds to bone out a chicken breast<\/p>\n
When I got to the meat case, whole chicken breast were on sale for $1.00 per pound. This is 60% off the regular price. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Yes!!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d I assume that they were looking to move chicken breast due to high inventory. Maybe they expected to sell more over the holidays but didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t. I doubt that the bottom is dropping out of the chicken market. Doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t matter, at that price, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll buy a bunch and put them in the freezer.<\/p>\n
I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to be greedy so I only bought 27 lbs even though I could easily have purchased 40 lbs. The breast are packaged 4lbs per container which is a convenient size for most recipes. When I got home, I threw 6 packages in the freezer and kept out one for supper. Between Chicken Marsalas and Kung Pao chicken, we should have about a 6 month supply.<\/p>\n
