As a college student cooking for myself, I have realized that cooking for one is quite difficult. Sometimes you have the intention of using a product, and then it just sits there...and sits there...and sits there... You get the point. It just sits there until it eventually goes bad and you throw it out. One thing I've tried to do to combat this is cook a batch of protein, and then use it throughout the week. Tonight I baked off 4 chicken thighs, and ate two of them for dinner. I served them simply with a side of corn. The chicken thighs were skin on,bone in, and took 50-60 minutes at 400 degrees. They came out with a crackling brown top which is the perfect way to cook chicken. Now I have 2 more chicken thighs that I can use for different meals over the next few days.
Do you have any tips for cooking for one?
How do you like to cook chicken?
