‍

What kind of chicken to use for the caprese sandwich?

  • Grilled
  • Oven-Baked
  • Battered, Crispy Chicken (homemade or store-bought)
  • Pan-Fried

‍

How can you tell when chicken is throughly cooked?

The best way to tell chicken is fully cooked is to use a meat thermometer. With it, you can check the internal temperature which will register at 165F when fully cooked. Another way is to poke the center of the chicken with a fork and if the juices run clear, it should be safe to eat!
