Can you put raw ground turkey in soup?

Choose a ground beef with a lower percentage of fat (like 90/10)/ lean minced beef. During the cooking process, skim any fat from the top of the cooking mince to remove any excess fat from the dish. If your not around when cooking the dish skim the fat at the end, however it is best to remove excess fat during the cooking process. Your dish should therefore be lean looking and not greasy looking.

How long can you keep a whole chicken frozen?

Just about as long as you want, but not quite. I wouldent suggest keeping it for over a year.

Can you deep fry chicken without flour?

There are many choices for chicken breading. One common breading is simply flour seasoned with salt and pepper. But you can also use corn flake cereal (crush it with a rolling pin, season it with salt, pepper, and any other spice you choose), nuts (crushed pecans or macadamia nuts are lovely as coatings), and other seasoning blends (such as paprika blended with a small amount of flour, curry blends with flour, etc.).

The goal when breading chicken is to have a coating that remains on the chicken pieces while they're frying and that enhance the flavor of the chicken. Fried chicken is a very common meal in the US and below is a basic 2-2-2 recipe for making it:

Take one cut-up chicken so that you have 2 each of legs, wings, thighs, and breasts. Clean the chicken well. Set aside.

Combine 2 cups of flour with 2 tablespoons salt and 2 tablespoons pepper. Use a fork to stir the seasoning into the flour. You may add 2 tablespoons of paprika if you want the chicken to be slightly spicy.

Blend 2 cups of milk with 2 eggs. Place all the chicken pieces into the milk/egg mixture and refrigerate for 2 hours.

When you're ready to cook the chicken, pour 2 cups of good vegetable oil into a deep pan. Heat to medium-medium high. While the oil is heating, drain the milk/egg mixture from the chicken. Place each piece of marinated chicken into the flour mixture to dredge it thoroughly. Place each piece of dredged chicken into the heated oil. Do not cover. Covering will cause the lid to sweat which will affect the crispness of your chicken.

Allow the chicken to cook slowly, browning throughout rather than only on the outer surface. After approximately 15 minutes, gently turn the chicken pieces by a 1/4 turn. Continue browning. Keep turning the chicken every 10 minutes until it is a dark golden brown with a nice crispy coating.

You may use the "chicken bits" that remain in the pan for country gravy by removing the chicken and draining off most of the oil. Add flour to make a paste and, while stirring, pour in milk while the mixture cooks on medium heat. If lumps appear, use a whisk to smooth the gravy texture. Remove from the heat before it looks like it's ready. Gravy will continue to thicken after being removed from heat.

You now have the beginnings of a typical American Sunday dinner.

How many pounds of shredded chicken to feed 50 people?

Typically, one quarter pound (4 ounces) of meat is considered a healthy serving, so you'd need 12.5 pounds of chicken for 50 people. However, if your guests are typical Americans they will eat a lot more than that, at least 6 or 8 ounces of meat per person: 25 pounds to be safe and not run out.

What is the safest way to thaw a whole frozen chicken?

Boiling the chicken will heat the chicken the fastest.

Put the chicken in a large bowl of water. Microwave for several minutes, periodically using a meat thermometer to check both the temperature of the water and the chicken (at its thickest part). Once the chicken has reached 160 degrees F, keep it there for about eight minutes (depending on size and amount of chicken).

You can keep the chicken hot until you are ready to eat by setting the microwave to "Defrost" cycle, zapping the water intermittently and effectively keeping the meat above 160 degrees.

Take this one step further and do the above with vegetables and seasonings and you have a great soup.

Is it ok to eat a chicken cooked with bag of giblets inside?

One must of course discard the plastic bag containing the giblets.

Then strain, keeping the stock and stripping the meat and chopping it finely. Add to the stock from the chicken carcass and some chopped vegetables for lovely soup!

What is cooking time for a 2kg roast chicken?

As a general rule I would cook it for 1 hr per 500gms for well done - 30mins per 500grms for rare.

You can also either cook it at the same temp the entire time (around 180C) or bump it up for the first 30 mins to 200c and then drop it down to 180c and do about 20 mins less all up. The varied temps browns the meat a little more. It's a choice thing though.

Can dogs eat fried chicken?

Dogs CAN eat fried chicken just as we can, but it is BEST that dogs DO NOT EAT FRIED CHICKEN. This is because the very fatty parts of the fried chicken can stimulate an acute pancreatitis or gastroenteritis in the dog--where the dog can become painful and have vomiting and diarrhea due to ingestion of something fatty or challenging to digest.

In addition, even if the dog chews up some of the bones of the fried chicken, the bones could potentially cause an obstruction in the stomach or intestine and also have the possibility of splintering and causing a tear in the stomach or intestine.
