2 “perfect teaspoons” in ~12oz freshly boiled water.
1st steep – Steeped about 10 min. then used to poach a chicken breast (also added salt, pepper, and Smoky Black T-dust)
2nd steep – still flavorful, although maybe muted a bit, but also more balanced. Got more tomato and black pepper. Good to know this one can handle longer times/resteeps!

The scoop I use is double sided, I thought I got it from Republic of Tea but maybe I was wrong as I don’t see i ton their site. Anyway, it looks like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Measure-Coffee-Measuring-Spoon/dp/B006WTYBA8/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1326913846&sr=8-16
It was good! Tender, moist and fairly flavorful. Almost as good as marinading and grilling it (that’s why I added the t-dust for a hint of smoke). I had 1/2 the chicken breast over a spinach salad with raw broccoli, cherry tomato, orange bell pepper, toasted sesame seeds and olive oil/balsamic vinegar as dressing. The chicken had enough flavor to complement but not overpower the already flavorful salad.

How did the chicken turn out?
