Breast Quarter

Poultry

Breast Quarter

Chicken breast quarter is the breast with attached wing and often rib bones—a bone-in white-meat roast portion larger than a simple fillet. Skin bastes the lean meat if left on. Roast or grill bone-in for juiciness; finish to safe doneness without drying. Brining helps large industrial breasts stay moist.
