t. No special techniques are required. Poultry should

be prepared as with conventional cooking. Season if desired.

4=All poultry should be placed on a microwave roasting

rack or a microwave-proof plate and placed on the turntable.

7.Make sure poultry is thoroughly cooked before eating. Whole poultry is completely cooked when the juices run clear from the inside thigh when it is pierced with a sharp knife, Poultry pieces should be pierced with a sharp knife through the thickest part to ensure that the juices are ctear and the flesh is firm.
