Tips & Warnings
  • Chicken is easy to cook and it is inexpensive.
  • Meat from chicken is less dense than beef or pork. This makes it easier for bacteria to travel through chicken meat. Chicken should always be cooked all the way through with no pinkness. Cook chicken to an internal temperature of at least 170 degrees.
