Chicken is an excellent food for
microwaving. It is tender, flavor
ful and juicy, microwaves rapidly,
and takes very little attention dur
ing cooking. Don’t overcook
poultry, however, it really will be
done in the very short cooking
periods given in the recipes.
Because they do cook so quickly,
chicken pieces do not get brown
and crisp. Furthermore, it will be
more attractive if brushed with a
browning agent, coated with
crumbs, or cooked in a Brown ’N
Sear Dish. Plain microwaved
chicken is perfect for salads and
casseroles too. If you are con
cerned about calories or cholester
ol, skin chicken before cooking,
since most of the fat is located
directly below the skin. If cooked
in a sauce, the flavor will be
absorbed by the chicken instead of
the skin.
