The cooking methods depend on what you want to get in the end: a fried brown crust or tender white meat. It is better to fry in melted butter, animal fat. And at the same time put it on an already hot frying pan – so the meat will turn out juicier if it is not overexposed on the fire.

If the freshness of the meat is “not the first”, it is better to marinate it before further processing. Any vinegar, lemon juice, hot pepper, mustard, mayonnaise and everything that can be suitable for a marinade, simple or complex, will do. The longer you marinate, the more tender the meat will be, the more marinade flavors will appear in it.
