CHICKEN

Cooking Poultry: General Directions

●Prepare the poultry for cooking. - Defrost completely.

- Arrange poultry pieces with thicker pieces at the outside edge of the baking dish. When cooking legs, arrange them like the spokes of a wheel.

- Cover the baking dish with waxed paper to reduce spattering.

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

●Watch the poultry as it cooks.

-Drain and discard juices as they accumulate.

-Shield thin or bony pieces with small strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Keep foil at least 1 inch from the oven walls and other pieces of

foil.

●Poultry is done when it is no longer pink and the juices run clear. When done, the temperature in the thigh meat should be 180-185°F.

●Let the poultry stand after cooking covered with foil

for 10 minutes.
