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.
