Chicken is among the most popular of edible poultry, and indeed, all meats. Its prominence is based upon worldwide abundance and the versatility of preparing it.
Cooking Chicken Properly

About half of all chickens are infected with Salmonella, a bacteria that can cause significant gastrointestinal illness. It is important to cook chicken to a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure eradication of all harmful bacteria.
Popular Cooking Methods
1. Grilling - Breasts, thighs and legs can all be cooked on a barbecue or other grill. When grilling, marinades or sauces are often spread on the meat during cooking.
2. Broiling or Roasting - Marinated chicken breasts can absorb a variety of flavors and dry cooking methods can help maintain these within the meat.
3. Frying - Breaded and fried chicken is a popular American comfort food and is suitable for outdoor parties or picnics. Buffalo Wings and many fast food chicken meals are prepared in this manner.
