Kenji’s Secret for the Juiciest Chicken Breast | NYT Cooking

Kenji is the best

cooking class and a science class at the same time. awesome video just like always

How 1derful it looked!

Seattle wishes drunk Kenji would move back to California.

Kenji ist the best! More please! Thank you.

Mayo is just oil and lecithin from the egg. The oil helps distributing the heat more evenly preventing the sugars and protein from burning.

I've used mayo for a topper on salmon fillets to add moisture, but not chicken like this. This one goes in the recipe book! Once again, thanks for a great clean and concise video.

What about yogurt instead of mayo, like in a lot of Indian marinades?

How have I been cooking for 45 years and never even heard of a mayo marinade?
Looks like the perfect solution for non-burning marinades I've been looking for. Thanks!

Appears following the links to the recipes requires a paid subscription to NYT cooking. No thanks. Will use a free mayo chimchurri marinade instead.

I cant believe this guy trained Khabib..

Man i hate the NYT but gotta like this guy. He's seemingly so humble and that food looks bomb!

My stubborn dad gets offended when I talk about marinating with mayo, since he used to be a meat cutter for so long. He's never heard of it, so he refuses to try anything he doesn't understand, and just decides to talk bad about it. At least I'll be able to have more to myself whenever he's around. Love this recipe. I never thought about putting chimichurri on chicken! I thought that was just a steak thing.

I learn something every. single. time. I watch a Kenji video. Love this dude.

Looks like a lot of good fond on the pan there. Could probably turn that into a pan sauce

Getting a printout of the chimichuriri was very easy; getting the recipe for the chicken was awful. It is too many steps and requires a download of unwanted software. No thanks.

Would this also work using a dry rub in place of the marinade? If so, what ratio is recommended?

The point of chicken breast is it's low fat, mayo negates that.

Kenji lost weight

Looks tasty.

Can I use no sodium mayo?

More Kenji alchemy

Would you still use Mayo with skin on chicken?

As a Portland native it’s so dope seeing Kenji getting his props. Solid guy. Amazing chef. Good soul.

how many extra calories do we add on that chicken breast with the mayo though ?

Yummy🥘👨🏼‍🍳🌷👍🏻🫑

The secret? 140gs of saturated fat =D

I swear Kenji is aging backwards, what magic is this :P

If you’re cooking chicken any other way, you’re cooking garbage. Let Kenji tell it.

This guy is a leftist maniac. Do not respect this man. He took his wife's last name.

Looks yummy, making it today, thank you!

Not trying to “call it” at 148f. 155-160 sorry.

I add mustard, never mayonnaise.

WE LOVE KENJI!!!!

Still loving Kenji, still waiting for vegan Kenji. And still waiting for vegan NYT, for that matter. Put your recipes where your values are!

Kenji with the MAYO hack - as mayo lovers over here at One Mighty Mill, we love this. We would love for Kenji TO COME VISIT OUR STONE-MILLS!!! We'd love to host him at our stone-mills!! Our first stone-mill is located in Lynn at our Test Bakery and Mill. We have 3 more in MA and another 3 in NY. This past year we built 3 Mills in Northern Cali! We'd love to have you out for the day and share the stone-milled goodness <3

I honestly always thought of a Chimichurri as salad dressing put on meat. Like the basic recipe for a salad dressing is 2 parts oil to 1 part acid/vinegar with some herbs mixed in and a drop of mustard to bind if you like. And that's what Chimichurri is without the mustard.

Mayonnaise price has doubled since Biden.

Always skeptical using mayo

Kenji is extremely knowledgeable, technical and precise. He is also charming and affable. I always enjoy his presentations.😊😊

Kenji = 🐐

Dried oregano need not to be infused for chimichurri 😂
We Argentinians blend all the ingredients at once. Wine vinegar does the work.

Kenji been cooking your chili recipe for all my get togethers this past year thanks! Glad to see him on this channel.

I can watch Kenji videos all day…

I've done this with yogert, it was delicious, I will try mayo next time❤
