COOKING GUIDES (CONT'D) WARNING : Do not use aluminum foil during cooking cycle. 6. STAND for 5-10 minutes wrapped in foil after cooking before carving. The standing time is very important, as it completes the cooking process. 7. Ensure poultry is thoroughly cooked before eating. Whole poultry is completely cooked when the juices run clear from the inside thigh when it is pierced with a sharp knife. Poultry portions should be pierced with a sharp knife through the thickest part to ensure that the juices are clear and the flesh is firm.
