Safety Tips

  • Thaw frozen chicken breasts in the refrigerator or in a bowl of cold water to prevent bacterial growth. When thawing chicken in the fridge, place it in a dish in case the package it is in leaks. This will catch any juices.
  • Always wash your hands before and after handling raw chicken to prevent the spread of bacteria.
  • Use separate cutting boards and utensils for raw chicken and other ingredients to avoid cross-contamination.
  • Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to kill harmful bacteria. Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. Eating undercooked or raw chicken can cause foodborne illness.
  • Refrigerate leftover chicken within 1 hour of cooking, and consume within 3 to 4 days.
