Kris , yes, I have run into this problem before. I have noticed its in the chicken breast that are bigger than your hand, and in fresh or frozen. I try to purchase them only from our local gro. who cuts & pkg. their own,they are small enough to fit on the palm of your hand. I find that Tyson here is bad about having larger birds therein larger chicken breast. When they are big like that , I butterfly them and pound them between plastic wrap or wax paper and cook as usual. It really does help. :D
