• No special techniques are required. Poultry should be prepared as with conventional cooking (season if desired).
• Poultry should be thoroughly defrosted. Remove giblets and any metal clamps.
• Prick the skin and brush lightly with vegetable oil unless the poultry is self-basing
• All poultry should be placed on a Microwave roasting rack or a Microwave-proof plate and placed on the Glass Turntable.
• Cook according to the instructions in the Poultry Cooking Table below. Turn over halfway though the cooking time. Because of
its shape, poultry has a tendency to cook unevenly, especially in very bony parts. Turning over during roasting helps to cook
these areas evenly.
• Make sure poultry is thoroughly cooked when the juices run clear from the inside thigh. Pierced with a sharp knife through
the thickest part to ensure that the juices are clear and the flesh is firm.
