After a disapointing (road kill) experience with a boned chicken ballotine awhile back,

[charlie]

lotsa ways to skin a cat--but your way sounds great

 

[charlie]

no gristle because like orchid said--those parts are removed. All you have is the meat and skin

 

[joe]

Sounds delicious!

You can be the next Martin Yan--ever see him do it!! About 15 seconds.

I was wondering that too. I frequently have that problem when

deboning cooked chicken, but I guess if it isn't cooked, it's not going to come off so easily.

Ok. You two have bolstered my courage. I may give it a try once the holidays calm down. THANKS!
