To steam chicken and poultry using your
VitaSteam Deluxe, the following are some
handy hints:
1. Select pieces of poultry of similar size for
even cooking.
2. Arrange poultry in a single layer, to
facilitate even cooking.
3. Removal of fat and the removal of skin is
recommended.
4. If some colour is desired, brown poultry
well in a non-stick frypan before steaming.
5. Steam until well done. Check by piercing
the thickest part of the poultry. If the
juices run clear, it is cooked.
