possibly stringy and dry especially if
the skin is removed
the outside may dry out as well as
overcook
even if the inside is not overcooked
leaving a leathery and unpleasant aspect

over cooking one of the leading causes
of rubbery chicken is overcooking the
meat
chicken is to be cooked quickly with
relatively high heat
since most boneless skinless breasts
aren't the same thickness
it makes it difficult to cook them
evenly

an emerging phenomenon called
woody breast while it's not harmful to

the condition causes chicken breasts to

fibers that lace the meat
