Tender Chicken Breast Ham
I learned this from my friend!
Chicken breast is cheap, but it's rather dry when cooked. But you can make it moist and tender with this recipe.
Do not turn on the heat after you put the wrapped chicken into the pot, since the plastic wrap may melt!
It's easier to roll up the chicken, and it won't break up easily if you remove the skin.
Or remove the skin first, then wrap it around the rolled chicken, then wrap in the plastic wrap! Recipe by mapi0711

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Butterfly the chicken to make an even thickness. Adjust the thickness by making shallow cuts in the thick parts of the chicken.
- 2
Coat the meat with 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt, and put it in a plastic bag. Massage the meat over the bag, and allow it to rest for about 3 hours to overnight. You can use the chicken breast with or without the skin.
- 3
Rinse the rested chicken breast really well, and pat dry with paper towels. If you only rinse it lightly, the flavor of the chicken will be rather strong.
- 4
Gently roll the chicken on a sheet of plastic wrap, and wrap it up tightly not leaving air as much as possible. If you couldn't wrap it tightly, wrap it up with another sheet of plastic wrap to make a second layer!
- 5
Twist both ends like a candy, and secure with rubber bands. Make sure that there is not much air inside.
- 6
When the water comes to a boil, turn off the heat. Put the wrapped chicken into the pot, and cover with a lid, without turning the heat on. When the water cools down, it's done.
- 7
Variation: By rolling the chicken with boiled vegetables (carrots, green beans, shiso leaves, edamame, etc.) inside, it'll add color and flavor.
- 8
Variation: If you coat the outside of the chicken with black pepper before you roll it up, you can make spicy ham. It goes really well with beer!

Easy Chicken Ham Easy Chicken Ham
It is better to wrap the chicken and then boil it instead of boiling it unwrapped, as it will tenderize the meat. Serve the removed chicken skin as an appetizer.Once you cover it with sugar and salt, let it sit. You also let it sit when removing the salt content. You put it in hot water and let it sit. The point is to let it sit for long enough that you forget that you are even making it.If you are using black pepper or herbs as seasoning, then it is easier to spread out the seasoning onto the cling film and then wrap the chicken. It also tastes great without seasoning. I tied both ends with strings. The cooling time varies according to the amount of hot water and the room temperature, but you don't need to worry bout it cooking through! I have never failed when making this. If you leave it on the stove for too long, then it will overcook and harden. Recipe by Shinsan

Easy Chicken Ham Easy Chicken Ham
I've made chicken ham many times in the past, but found tying the ham together with string to be very bothersome. Using plastic wrap to form the ham is a huge help to the cook.First start by rubbing in the sugar.When you add the meat to the boiling water, it will float. Don't touch it! Just wait for the boiling to begin again, and cut the heat immediately. If you do not turn off the heat, the ham will be dry and the sugar you rubbed in will have been for nothing.Make sure you have enough sugar and salt to easily coat the chicken breasts using your hands.

Tender Chicken Breast Roll Tender Chicken Breast Roll
Some time ago I saw a recipe for "Juicy and moist chicken breast" on TV. I especially liked that they rolled up the chicken, so I adapted it in various ways to my taste.I used shio-koji this time since I had some in stock, but you can also make the chicken tender by steam-cooking it with salt + sake or white wine intead. When you brown the chicken, remember that it's already cooked through so you only need to cook it quickly!If you let the chicken cool down a bit before slicing, it's less likely to fall apart.
