When checking the temperature of meat, fish or poultry, upon delivery you should insert the probe or the stem of the thermometer into the thickest part of the food.
Poultry should not be cooked by time, but by temperature. Use a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the breast. Cook to a minimum temperature of 165 degrees F as recommended by the USDA.
Leave the meat thermometer in the oven until it reaches the desired temperature for the meat to be cooked properly.
