POULTRY COOKING CHART

NOTES:

• The times listed above are only a guide. Allow for difference in individual tastes and preferences.

The times may also vary due to the shape, cut, and composition of the food.

• If whole poultry is stuffed, the weight of the stuffed bird should be used when calculating the

cooking time.

STEAKS/CHOPS

1. Arrange fish in a large shallow non-metallic dish or casserole.

2. Cover with pierced microwave plastic wrap or casserole lid.

3. Place the dish on the turntable.

4. Cook according to the instructions in the Fresh Fish Cooking Chart below. Flakes of butter can be

added to the fish if desired.

5. Let stand as directed in the Cooking Chart before serving.

6. After standing time, check to see that the fish is thoroughly cooked. The fish should be opaque

and flake easily.
