SunStar May 21, 2021 It’s easy to cook chicken. I still have to know of someone who fails at this. Even a weekend cook like me can prepare chicken in many ways and here’s how. SAVORY. Savory is a flavor defined as “having a pleasant taste or smell.” The taste can be spicy or salty or both. When I make savory chicken, I mix salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, and Spanish paprika on cut up chicken before frying or grilling. There are times I sprinkle lemon juice on the chicken to brighten up its taste. Alternately, I may add the powdered flavorings on flour and cornstarch and use it to coat the chicken.
