You Can Make One Week's Worth of Baon with One Whole Chicken
Planning a week's worth of baon? All you have to do is pick up a whole chicken from the grocery and get creative! One whole chicken is usually cheaper by the kilo than the pre-chopped parts. Split that between 5 days by cooking with a different chicken part every day, and you'll be saving yourself a whole lot of money.
Here are a few recipes and ideas you can use for this week's meal plan:Â
Monday: Baked Chicken with Ginger-Scallion Sauce
Use: Chicken thighs
Cooking for one? Bake this dish in a toaster oven! The sauce is delicious poured over hot rice.
Tuesday: Â Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Drumsticks
Use: Drumsticks
Everything is better wrapped in bacon! Serve a light salad on the side for the perfect pairing.
Wednesday: Salted Egg Yolk Chicken Wings
Use: Chicken wings
Purchase salted eggs from any major grocery and whip up a tasty sauce for fried chicken wings.
Thursday: Chicken Piccata
Use: Chicken breasts
The key to soft chicken piccata? Pound the chicken breasts until they are flat and fry until cooked.
Friday: Chicken and Veggie Soup
Use: Extra meat and chicken bones
Use all your leftover chicken parts, including all the bones and extra meat, to make a hearty chicken soup.
