We’ve all gone to the store to buy chicken. Satisfied with our purchase, we come back home, cook it the way we like it, and then eat it. It’s chicken after all, shouldn’t it all taste the same? Well, no. Buying chicken is the same as buying vegetables, you have to be careful to buy the best produce available. To do that, you need to know how it should look and feel and also where it comes from. Going through all these details can ensure that the next chicken breast you buy will probably be the best-tasting chicken of your entire life. Here are a few ways to choose the perfect chicken breast!

1. Appearance and Feel:

The first thing to keep in mind when selecting your chicken is to check its appearance. The meat should be in a light-pink hue. Anything that’s even a little bit yellow or grey is a no-go. It should also be firm. When you press the cut, it must spring back up. If it feels a little slimy or is sticky, avoid it at all costs. It also must have a neutral smell. If it smells kind of funky, that probably means it’s spoiled.

2. Types of Chickens (Certifications):

Chicken is grown in many ways. They can be grown at a commercial culling farm or grown naturally and ethically at a farm. Different types of growing patterns affect chickens differently. Always try to choose organic chickens. These chickens have led a natural life eating organic food, and are antibiotic-free. You could also go for farm fresh, which is a way of growing chickens that promotes a natural lifestyle rather than putting them in cages.

3. Storage:

The way that manufacturers store chickens should help them stay fresh for longer. Ensure that your chicken breast is in a vacuum-sealed package, helping it retain its freshness for a longer period while helping prevent contamination of any sort. Like any other product, check the “best before” date before your purchase. After you get it, follow the instructions provided on the packaging to ensure optimum conditions for the chicken’s storage before you cook it.

4. Origin:

This is an optional step but if you want to double-check if you’re getting the best chicken possible, look up the supplier and check if they’re local. If they’re from the nearby region, then there’s a better chance of your chicken being fresh than if it was from a region farther away.
