While in the store, carefully study all the labels on the chicken carcass or its parts, if it is divided, the date of manufacture must be kept and during which time it is stored. Information should be indicated on the method of processing meat: a frozen or chilled product. It is better, of course, to choose chilled meat, it is more fresh, juicy. But when choosing a frozen dish it will not get worse, it's important that the carcass does not have pigment and foreign spots, it was not deformed, had a pale yellow with a pink hue of color, and it was bleached.

Chicken fillet in a creamy sauce will be cooked from chicken breasts, so pay attention to a good thickness and even layer of fillets, the integrity of the piece. If the product is deep freeze, then it takes 12 hours before cooking to get it from the freezer for thawing, placed on the lower shelf in the refrigerator and defrosted at a temperature of 5-7 ° C. In this case, there will be no sharp dehydration, which means that the meat will not lose its juiciness. To prepare chicken fillet in creamy sauce, we need the following ingredients: 2 chicken breasts - 500-700 grams, seasonings, 150-200 grams, cream 12-15%, cheese (preferably soft varieties, brine cheese) - 200 grams, garlic 3-4 cloves, vegetable oil. Wash the fillets under running cold water, dry with a napkin. Grate pieces on both sides with condiments, if not ready, then salt, pepper, thyme will only improve the taste. Leave for 20-30 minutes on the table for better impregnation. Next, in a pan with a thick bottom, it is better than cast iron, pour 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil and set it on moderate fire. When the oil warms up, put the fillet on a frying pan and fry until golden brown for 3-5 minutes on each side. Place the pieces in the baking dish with the sides to prevent the sauce from pouring out.

To make the sauce, chop the cheese on a medium grater. In a small saucepan pour the cream, add finely chopped garlic, crumb of cheese and put on a small fire. We stir all the time so as not to burn, and bring to a boil. If the crumb of cheese began to dissolve, then remove the saucepan from the fire. Pour the sauce pieces of fillet and put in the oven for baking at a temperature of 160-180 ° C for 30-35 minutes. If you have a cover for the form, then cover it, the chicken fillet in a creamy sauce will only benefit from it. The sauce will not boil and evaporate, the meat will become more juicy, the cooking time will decrease for 5-7 minutes, and, importantly, you do not have to wash the oven from drips and splashes. It is important to ensure that you do not tighten the baking time, do not make the fillet dry and hard.

For those who follow a strict diet, an alternative may be chicken fillet in soy sauce. From the moment the meat is laid out in the baking dish, the recipe undergoes changes. To do this, beforehand, 5-8 tablespoons of light soy sauce, he is more accustomed to our taste, we breed in 70-100 grams of cold boiled water. The sauce is salty, so we reduce the amount of salt in the marinade of the chicken. We knead the sauce until smooth and fill the fillets. We put in the oven.

Chicken fillet in sauce spread on the leaves of a green salad. Garnish can be cut by medium cubes of Bulgarian pepper, young boiled potatoes or rice. Must be chilled white wine.
