1. Brine solution allows the meat it to soak up the moisture from the water.

• Create a brine solution by mixing 4 cups of water with 3 tablespoons of salt. Soak thawed chicken breast in this solution for one hour prior to cooking.
• Place frozen chicken breast in brine solution and place in refrigerator overnight to thaw. Rinse chicken breast thoroughly and season to taste.

2. Rinse chicken thoroughly

Classic Spaghetti Salad is a post from: Mrs. BliSs for WomantoAnother.com

My husband and I don’t frequent the sit-down restaurants because we eat what they serve right here at home. We don’t spend a ton of money on it either. Want seafood? Check our your local grocer’s seafood section and you’ll be surprised at the great deals you find. For example, our local grocery store often has the jumbo frozen shrimp on sale buy one get one free.  Want steak? You can also buy steaks at a great price nowadays as well.

The point I’m trying to make is, the very same foods that we spend $10-$15 per plate on can be eaten right at home. Not only will you have the ability to enjoy the leftovers, you will have saved a few bucks as well.

The Dish pictured above is shrimp sauteed in butter and marjoram with a cold cripy side salad. Made right in my kitchen. The recipe is as follows…

1. Clean and peel raw shrimp
2. Season shrimp with season salt and pepper
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet, skillet will be ready when butter sizzles. Add a tablespoon of marjoram to the butter and cook for 1 minute
4. Add shrimp toss shrimp to coat it in butter and marjoram; let it cook a few minutes until shrimp is pink. (about 3-5 minutes)
