whole chicken
chicken pieces
Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still
be icy; let them stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals have
thawed. Shielding roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges
from cooking before the center of the food has defrosted.
Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and thinner
sections of the food.
