Cooking Whole Poultry by Micro Power

Season as desired, but salt after cooking. Browning sauce mixed with equal parts of butter will enhance the appearance.

Poultry may be stuffed or unstuffed. Tie legs together with cotton string. Place on a microwave rack set in a rectangular dish. Place poultry breast- side down: turn over halfway through cooking. Cover with wax paper to prevent splattering.

If the poultry is not cooked enough, return it to the oven and cook a few more minutes at the recommended power level.

DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT THERMOMETER IN THE MICROWAVE OVEN. Let stand, covered with foil, 10 to 15 minutes after cooking. Standing time allows the temperature to equalize throughout the food and finishes the cooking process.

If a large amount of juice accumulates in the bottom of the baking dish, occasionally drain it. If desired, reserve juices for making gravy.

Less-tender birds should be cooked in liquid such as soup or broth. Use 14 cup per 500g of poultry.

Use an oven cooking bag or a covered casserole. Select a covered casserole deep enough so that bird does not touch the lid.

If an oven cooking bag is used, prepare according to package directions. Do not use wire twist-ties to close bag. Use only nylon tie, a piece of cotton string, or a strip cut from the open end of the bag. Make six 2 cm slits on top of bag.

Multiply the weight of the poultry by the minimum recommended minutes per 500 g. Programme Micro Power and Time.

After cooking, check the internal temperature of the bird with a microwave or conventional meat thermometer inserted into the muscle. Check temperature in both muscles. The thermometer should not touch bone. If it does, the reading could be inaccurate. A thermometer cannot be accurately inserted into a small bird. To check desired cooking of a small bird, juices should be clear and the drumsticks should readily move up and down after standing time.

During cooking, it may be necessary to shield legs, wings and the breast bone with foil to prevent overcooking. Wooden toothpicks can be used to hold foil in place.

Turn or rearrange halfway through cooking. Shield wing tips, drumstick ends etc., if required.

The microwave includes a range of pre-programmed settings tailored for common food types, allowing users to select the desired cooking mode with just the touch of a button. The Genius Sensor Cooking technology takes this a step further by automatically adjusting power and cooking time based on the steam emitted from the food, ensuring optimal results every time.

The microwave also features a keep warm function, which is especially useful for busy households. This setting allows food to remain at the ideal serving temperature until it is ready to be enjoyed. With a quick 30-second button, users can easily add extra time on the fly, making it perfect for those moments when you need just a little more heating.

Safety is another priority for Panasonic, and the NN-SD376S includes child safety locks to prevent unintended use, making it a practical choice for families. Additionally, the easy-to-read control panel is user-friendly, enhancing the overall cooking experience.
