Few choices.

Slice the breast and fry in some olive oil.

Chop up some Parsley, lemon zest, garlic and chuck it in the frying pan and cook for a couple of minutes, then squeeze over the juice of the lemon and fry off most of the liquid. Serve on some cous cous with some rocket.

Cook up some pasta, slice the chicken breast and pan fry with some olive oil, garlic, lemon zest and capers, toss with the pasta and grate some parmesan over the top.

Stir fry the chicken with some diced red and green peppers and a small cucumber with the seeds removed, along with some chinese rice wine, ginger and soy sauce. Serve on Jasmine rice with some crushed peanuts over the top.

The op said he bought three breasts, without further inquiry I thought he meant he got a pack of three to which I replied I would throw it out now. I presumed it had been open in the fridge since Saturday.

I'm sorry I didn't enquire further before giving him my advice, I should have checked if he had wrapped it up and put in full food hygene control measures.

If the op had enquired how best to keep his venison my advice may have been different.

Jesus.
sorry, but to say "3 days and it goes in the bin" is to me both ridiculous and wasteful.

Does that mean that if you have a piece of chicken that you have had for one day, but it is green and mouldy, that you would eat it? I doubt it. But taking the point the other way round, why throw out something that is perfectly good just because you have possessed it for an arbitrary amount of time.

It's your money, and your choice. But very odd.
Sniff Test! If it smells alrights, cook it. If it doesn't bin it!

Haha that sounds pretty good might try that next week.

In the end I just made some steaks we had and roasted the chicken breast for some sandwiches with a bit of pepper, a splash of HP halapeno hot sauce and a few drops of Dave's Insanity Sauce.

Get a new cat (having first made sure it is partial to chicken).

I buy chicken by the 5 kg box (several) and from the factory they have 9 days recommended life,
although they are gas flushed they will sill last 3-4 days after that.
First they go dry then sticky......then bin them.


Just a butchers view.

To be fair, that only applies at work. Can't risk giving a customer food poisoning. At home I'm much more laid back about it, I know food well enough to tell if it's still fit to eat. Just made soup with carrots 'dated' the 18th Feb.

Soup - the universal way of using up vegetables that have been lurking for far longer than they should have been.
