So, instead of using baking soda, you can do this trick to make the chicken meat juicy and not tough by marinating the chicken using lime juice. The owner of the TikTok account @tehnickekania explained, if you have stock, you can also add milk to make the results even juicier. But if you just use lime , it's no problem.

"Just using lime is mandatory, because it will break the protein chain," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @tehnickekania on Thursday (11/4).

Reporting from savorysuitcase.com, limes have quite high acidity. Well, this acid works to break down the protein fibers in chicken meat and increase the fluid content in it, so that the chicken can be juicier.

Simply marinate the chicken in lime for at least 30 minutes before cooking. After marinating, chicken meat can be immediately seasoned and cooked. Apart from that, before seasoning, you can also wash the chicken meat first if you don't want the sour taste of the lime remaining on the chicken.
