Cooked chicken meat

If you overcooked the meat, it becomes very rubbery and hard to chew. However, this doesn't mean that the product is already spoiled and shouldn't be eaten. Moreover, it is worth considering that it is also expensive. Therefore, you need to make sure that the dish can still be served.

Maria Zolotova shared a life hack for this on her Facebook page.

If the meat is still overcooked, cut it into small pieces, put it in a bowl, and cover it with onions. Put the tomatoes on top, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with lemon juice and salt. The meat will become juicy and tender.
