Sorry BW, messing with you a little.
but no, I can't eat like that. I mean, physically could my digestive system put up with that? Probably. But life's too short to eat like crap. And there's probably a dozen different ways I can prepare a chicken breast in 30 minutes or less that will actually taste like real food, not nuked water chicken.
Hell, you can take a chicken breast, cut a slit in the fat end to make a two-three inch deep pocket or whatever, and just fill it loosely with chunks of cheese (like those snack packs of cheese chunks), maybe some sliced olives or just some capers, season, toss that into a hot pan with some EVOO for about 6 minutes a side, dinner/lunch is served.
Don't want to clean a pan? No prob. Put the chicken in a foil packet with a couple tablespoons of water, spray/brush/dab with a little oil, toss in 375 degree oven for 15 minutes.
Eat as is, or cut it up and serve over rice/pasta/roasted veggies, or just some bread.
Or, slice breast thin, put in a bowl, add a couple tablespoons of soy sauce, rice wine (or beer), teaspoon of garlic (those squeeze bottles of garlic work great), red pepper flakes, ginger if you have it, and marinate for 20 minutes, then saute in hot pan for 5 minutes? Quick semi-Korean chicken bul gogi. Heck, they even sell pre-cooked rice bowls now, so you don't even have to cook rice anymore.
Lolz, I just need my food to taste like actual food.
