COOKING MEAT & POULTRY: TIPS & TECHNIQUES
l
Be sure meat and poultry is completely defrosted before cooking. Trim off excess fat.
l
Place meat, fat side down, on a microwave roasting rack in a microwave-safe baking dish.
l
Arrange meat and poultry so thicker portions face the outside of the baking dish.
. Drain juices as they accumulate in the dish. Save for making gravy.
l
Shield thin or bony portions with strips of aluminium foil molded to the meat to prevent overcooking. Be
sure to keep foil at least 1 inch from oven walls.
l
Cover meat lightly with waxed paper to stop spatters.
l
Let meat stand, covered with foil 10 to 15 minutes, after removing from the oven. During standing time the
internal temperature of the meat will rise approximately 5°F.-150F. Standing time is an important part of
the total time required to complete cooking
