MEATS
Guide for Cooking Meats
Roasts, chops, hamburgers and small cuts of tender meat cook beautifully in the microwave oven. Most roasts
can be cooked rare, medium rare or even well done in less than one hour. Less tender cuts of meat such as
pot roast can be simmered fork-tender in a sauce or gravy. Tough cuts that require slow cooking will do better
in a conventional oven. A large piece of meat, especially if the shape is uneven, should be turned over
occasionally for uniform roasting.

Guide for Cooking Poultry
Chicken is one of the most popular foods and microwaving chicken is one of the best uses of your microwave
oven. Chicken stays juicy and tender in the microwave oven. However, juiciness prevents browning because
chicken crisps and browns only when the skin dries out enough to change color. Standing time is important,
because it allows the interior to finish cooking without toughening the delicate breast meat.
