Let's talk about chicken.

Takes on flavors well, isn't overly expensive, and is easy to cook in the oven. Also not all that unhealthy for you. All that combines to make it a rather excellent staple food for all us poor college students out there. That, paired with the fact that it is the only land-flesh I eat, makes for a blog chock full of chicken recipes.

All recipes on this site that involve white meat can be used for fresh chicken from the butcher's aisle, or for the huge value packs of flash-frozen chicken breasts that you can get from the freezer aisle. The frozen breasts are generally going to be larger, thicker, and a little less tender, but they are certainly less expensive and much easier to store. For dark meat, use only fresh chicken. Wings and breasts are the only things I trust that come pre-frozen.

Nowhere on this blog will you find a recipe to spice up anything called a "tender." If they can't identify where it came from, I am not putting it in my mouth. I have the same policy with hot dogs.
