      I need a new pan but not sure whether I should buy SS, non-stick, or both? Can you help explain when to use which? Always worried food on SS will stick, but I suspect you won't get a good seer with non-stick? PS love your videos and both your subtle and non-subtle humor!

      ​@@Flanker234For what it's worth, I only have one non stick fry pan for eggs/omelette only. I see people buying whole non-stick cookware sets which isn't necessary, or exactly healthy.
      A sauce pot/pan never has to be non-stick because you have lots of moisture in it...
      Just use stainless, carbon and cast Iron. Don't cook acidic foods, like tomato based sauces in cast Iron or carbon though... only in stainless.
      Just don't leave acidic sauces/foods in too long after cooking.🙂

I followed Sonny's @thatdudecancook chicken recipe nearly to a tee and it was nothing I could have created on non stick. Clean up was easy ONLY after making the sauce which removed 95% of the fond...my nightmare would have become reality had I not.

    I like these calmer videos as opposed to the manic ones. Thanks for sharing. I also like how you said how to make the rosemary salt as part of this. It's a pet peeve of mine when a chef adds some sauce or seasoning mix that is clearly a flavor bomb and just ignores it or hand waves it for "another video". I ALSO like how you explain alternatives or why you do what you do. (all that is probably why I'm subscribed).

      Thanks for the great content! Is there an equivalent technique to the pan basting when you're cooking more than one piece of protein at a time? I haven't tried it because I'm usually cooking 8-12 of whatever I'm making to feed the family.

    • @Berkana
      @Berkana 11 місяців тому +2

      Sonny, what you said about the grain of the meat of chicken breast at 10:39 isn't actually correct. The grain isn't running across a chicken breast; there's a seam down the middle, and the grain runs diagonally outward from the central seam, so when you slice it the way you sliced it, part of it gets cut across the grain, but then as you go through the breast, you hit the other half, and suddenly your cuts are with the grain.
      Look at 11:15. You can see that a portion of the chicken breast shows the grains much more aligned with the cut.
      If you first cut a single cut down along the seam, you could then slice each half across the grain, and it should be more optimal than slicing it along the length. Try this and see if it doesn't work for you.

    I’ve started using the Chinese method of marinating meat (dicing and washing, scratching with liquid seasonings, then scratching with corn starch). With the declining quality of store bought meat, it’s almost a necessity and does a lot to bring up flavor and texture. Also helps thicken any sauces or keep sautéed vegetables from ruining the browning on the chicken.

      @@fordhouse8b no, that’s how chef wang gang refers to the technique. you basically whip the meat and seasonings with your fingers until it’s all been picked up by the meat, and then do it again with the corn starch until it becomes sticky. I doubt there is any real hoodoo to it, but it does cause the seasoning to adhere to the meat instead of sitting in a pile of juice.

    Always cracks me up when I see people make pan sauces with so little fond and tons of flavorful ingredients.
    Like, I’d love to see them blind taste test it vs a sauce in a clean pan and see if they can tell the difference, because I really doubt it.
    You just made a sauce, which is cool, and it was made in a pan, so I guess it’s still a “pan sauce” though, lol.

    JFC! Thank you for properly explaining the benefits of basting, especially when it comes to cooking uneven proteins. I swear I just left a rant of a comment on another youtube channel because they didn't understand that basting is phenomenal for many reasons, and this one is often overlooked. You can focus your basting on the fatter/thicker end of a protein to help it cook more evenly. I could go on, but suffice it to say that your protein game is on point, Sunny!
    My only critique here is that you didn't talk about the importance of gelatin in the pan sauce. If you use store-bought chicken stock, your sauce will be watery and thin no matter how much you reduce it, so if you're using cheater stock, just bloom about 1-2 tsp powdered gelatin per cup of stock, and this will help your sauce tighten up as you reduce it.

    The sauce in the thumbnail looked really red, but the sauce in the video looked more like a classic gravy brown.
    Don't know if this was intentional or not, but I clicked because I was intrigued because of how red it was.
    Great video! Thanks for sharing, love the herb trick

    I have a question: When making the sauce, could have you used the leftover butter from bathing the chicken instead of adding cold butter?

    Your chicken tender pan sauce recipe blew our minds at home. I make it once a week now because my family loves it so much. Can't wait to try this!

  • @SporTH2010
    @SporTH2010 11 місяців тому

    I do the sauce in a very similar way when I make a pan of fish. Finely chopped onion, white wine, Citron, fish stock, garlic, butter and parsley. The fish is just salted and coated with flour and egg (just like a normal breading but without the actual breading). A nice glass of the chilled white wine goes perfectly with that. Enjoy.

    Thanks for the video, I'm gonna try this one!
    Question for thatdudecancook: To make the sauce you remove the cooking oil & drippings from the pan. Later you add back chicken stock and butter, for flavor and fat. Why not leave the oil and drippings? It seems like they are rich in the two elements (flavor and fat) that you add back later.

    OK yes I followed this closely...I LOVED the result that came out!!! Went back to the pan to devour the rest of the sauce and picked the chicken clean! Fantastic!!! THANKS
