i would use dark chicken cutlets instead. cooks quicker & stays moister
Should be fine. Enjoy.
instead of vegetable oil can I use olive oil or coconut oil?
About 2-3 chicken breasts should work.
how much is 1 1/2 pound chicken breast?
Malka – there are kosher Worcestershire sauces that are available that do not have fish in them, precisely because of this issue.
Yes, this looks good, but I do have a kashruth question. Worceshire has anchovies in it — fish. I was under the impression that we do not cook fish and meat/chicken in the same dish or even eat them at the same time. Please advise.
