Cooking Poultry:General Directions

• Preparethepoultryforcooking.

- 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.
