have various uses. All
meat types are often
ground into forced meat
for numerous recipes.

Chicken breast filets have no bones in them. They
can be used just as they are, cooked in different
ways, but they can also be cut into pieces and used
in stews and soups.

Chicken thighs are mostly used just as they are,
baked in an oven. The skin is left on to give it a
crispy surface and the thighs are often marinated so
the skin gets a special taste.

fast food menus but they can also be served at nicer
restaurants, but then they are served with other
sides.
