About British chicken breast

British chicken breast is breast meat from chicken produced in Britain. It is commonly cooked as a portion by roasting, pan-cooking, grilling or poaching, and is also sold diced or sliced for use in mixed dishes.

The meat is pale pink when raw and has a lean, fairly fine-grained texture when cooked. It may be sold boneless and skinless, or with skin and bone; these forms differ in cooking behaviour and appearance. The geographic descriptor does not specify a production method or particular cut size.
