How to microwave a whole chicken (recipe) details
Recipe instructions
- Using kitchen shears or a sharp knife, remove most of the skin from the chicken. This is easier than it sounds, especially with scissors.
- Place chicken breast side up in a microwavable pan (Pyrex is great).
- Mix salt and spices and rub all over the outer surfaces of the chicken.
- Place onion inside cavity (be sure to remove the gizzard bag first!).
- Set microwave power on 70% (or medium high).
- Microwave for about 10 minutes per pound, so 35 minutes for a 3.5 lb bird, 50 minutes for a 5 lb-er, etc.
-
Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting, then enjoy! Do make sure the breast meat closest to the bone is cooked; the legs will be done before the center.
