Chicken treats for Cats

                    Take 1 lb. of fresh organic free-range boneless chicken breast and freeze until firm but not         frozen (about two hours). This makes the chicken easier to cut.

                    Preheat oven to 200°F is equal to 93.33°C

                     Oil a large cookie sheet

                     With a large, sharp chef’s knife slice thin. Then cut into smaller pieces about 1 inch square

                     Place chicken pieces on baking sheet

                     Sprinkle with sea salt (about half a tsp.)

                    Bake for 2 hours or until crispy

                     Once cool, transfer to an airtight storage container.

The treats can be broken into smaller pieces if desired. These treats are healthy but not a meal replacement. Limit treats to a couple a day. While the treats are cooling, the smell will be irresistible so keep your kitties away.
