In 2014, chicken became the most popular meat in the US, finally beating out beef. And the most popular cut of chicken is the breast.
So in honor of this highly popular cut of meat, we’ve put together this giant list of Paleo Chicken Breast recipes. From dicing it to pan searing it to making it into “sandwiches”, there’s a lot of variety!
And if you’re interested in just how healthy chicken is, check out our article here.
