About Chicken fillet

Chicken fillet usually refers to a boneless piece of chicken meat, but the cut intended can vary by market and product. It may be a breast portion or a smaller strip of breast meat, and the name alone does not establish whether it is skinless, trimmed, or formed. Raw fillet is pale pink and soft, becoming opaque and firmer when cooked.

Fillets are commonly pan-cooked, grilled, baked, or used in other preparations where boneless meat is convenient. They are sold fresh or frozen, whole or cut into smaller pieces. Since the term is not fully standardized, a specific package or cut description is needed to establish the exact anatomical portion.
