POULTRY
Juicy and moist describes poultry cooked by
microwave energy. It is a superior method for cooking
chicken to be used in casseroles, salads, or to have for
sandwiches. See Poached Chicken recipe.
Arrangement is very important with poultry and its
uneven shapes. Try to arrange pieces in a circular
pattern wherever possible for the most even defrosting
or cooking. The rounded part of the drumstick should
go at the outer edge, for example, while the thinner end
goes to the middle of the dish. Continue with other
pieces until the overall layer is fairly even. Cover with
wax paper to prevent spattering.
Poultry defrosts well with our AUTO DEFROST feature
(see page 15). Be sure that all poultry is completely
defrosted before cooking. Check for doneness after
stand time is over.
Remember that more cooking will take place during
standing time. Poultry must be cooked to an internal
temperature of 160°F for boneless pieces, to 170°F for
bone-in pieces and to 185°F for whole birds.
Poultry is done when the meat is no longer pink and the
juices are the colour of chicken broth with no traces of pink.
Be sure to check for these signs by cutting into the inner
thigh. You may also check for the internal temperature with
an instant-read thermometer. Occasionally the bones will
show red spots, but this does not affect the doneness.
