Critical Success Points

  • Marinate the chicken at least 1 hour so the flavors penetrate

  • Cook the chicken to 75°C internal temperature

Safety Warnings

  • Handle raw chicken with separate utensils to avoid cross‑contamination
  • Be careful of hot steam from the cooking bag when removing from the oven
