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 splattering.

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

•Tend 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.

•The 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.

LMVM1955SW, LMVM1955SBQ, LMVM1955SB, LMVM1955T specifications

The LG Electronics LMVM1955T, LMVM1955SB, LMVM1955SBQ, and LMVM1955SW are advanced microwave ovens that showcase LG's commitment to innovation and user-friendly technology. Designed to make cooking easier and more efficient, these models are equipped with a range of features that cater to the diverse needs of modern households.

One of the standout features of these microwave ovens is the Smart Inverter technology, which ensures precise cooking and defrosting. Unlike traditional microwaves that use a standard heating element, the Smart Inverter allows for variable power levels, delivering consistent heat across all types of food. This results in better texture and flavor, especially for delicate items like seafood or frozen meals that require even defrosting.

In addition to Smart Inverter technology, each model comes with a variety of preset cooking options. These presets cater to different food types, such as popcorn, pizza, and beverages, which makes meal preparation incredibly convenient. Users can simply select a food category, and the microwave automatically adjusts the power and cooking time, ensuring optimal results.

The exterior design of the LMVM1955 series is stylish and sleek, featuring a modern stainless steel finish that complements any kitchen décor. Easy-to-clean surfaces and an intuitive control panel enhance the user experience, allowing for seamless operation. Additionally, the interiors are designed for easy maintenance, as many models come with a non-stick coating that resists stains and odors.

Accessibility is another focus with these models, as they offer features like a bright and intuitive LCD display, making it easy to monitor cooking progress. The microwaves also boast a sensor cook feature, which uses humidity-sensing technology to determine when food is perfectly cooked, eliminating guesswork and preventing overcooking.

Safety is paramount in kitchen appliances, and the LMVM1955 series does not disappoint. The child lock feature ensures that little hands cannot accidentally start the microwave, providing peace of mind for families.

In summary, the LG Electronics LMVM1955T, LMVM1955SB, LMVM1955SBQ, and LMVM1955SW combine advanced cooking technologies with user-friendly features to streamline meal preparation. With Smart Inverter technology, a range of preset options, modern aesthetics, and safety measures, these models are designed to enhance the cooking experience while meeting the demands of busy households.
