Chickenis one of the most popular
foods and microwaving
chickenis one of the best uses
of your microwave
oven. Chickenstays
juicy
and tender
in the microwave
oven. However,
jucinesspreventsbrowningbecausechicken
crisps and browns only when the skin dries
out enough to change color.
Standing
time is important,because
it allows the interiorto
finish cooking
without toughening
