POULTRY

Microwave-cooked chicken is juicy and succulent. Whole poultry becomes golden but not crisp. For the crisper, conventional crust, pop the poultry in your conventional oven at 450°F for 10 to 15 minutes. The same technique is also convenient when barbequing. Defrost and precook in your microwave oven then flash-cook on the grill for that barbeque flavor.

Cooking Poultry: Tips & Techniques

l l

l l l l

l l

Defrost poultry completely before cooking.

Arrange poultry so that thicker pieces face the outside of the baking dish. If cooking legs, arrange them like spokes of wheels.

Cover the baking dish with waxed paper to minimize spattering.

Turn over both whole poultry and poultry pieces to ensure even cooking. Drain and discard juices as they accumulate.

Shield thin or bony pieces with small strips of aluminum foil to prevent over cooking. Keep foil at least one inch from oven walls and other pieces of foil.

Use a browning agent or cook with a sauce to give browned appearance.

Cook poultry until no longer pink and juices run clear. Temperatures in thigh meat should be 18PF when done. Let stand covered with foil 10 minutes.
