Chicken recipe tips & tricks
Chicken is a versatile protein choice for dinners, and easy to cook by following our recipes. But here are a few handy general rules to keep in mind when cooking with chicken:
If roasting chicken: The key to achieving a crispy, golden-brown skin is keeping the skin and flesh intact during roasting. To check if your chicken has cooked through, a meat thermometer is the most reliable method. The internal temperature should reach 75°C.
For chicken breasts: Different rules apply for moist-heat cooking (poaching or baking in parchment) and dry-heat cooking (roasting, grilling, frying). Always follow the specific direction in your chosen baked chicken recipe.
To cut and portion a whole chicken: read this Test Kitchen article and watch the how-to video. It can be a good money-saver to do this yourself.
