Flattery, or beating ones breast

Chicken is a wonderfully versatile meat; but like all meats, the incorrect application of heat tends to toughen, and the chicken breast, while plentiful and available skinless and boneless (characterless?) is prone to toughening more than other parts.
But there is a method to ensure your bites are tender: beating the heck out of it, but gently:-)
If you do this right, and then flour, egg and bread the breasts, and then shallow fry them in a little oil, you'll get a marvellous comfort food dish, preparable in minutes, edible for a couple of days or more...

Yours, beating
N.
