SC - Boiling chicken

[Diana Skaggs]

     It's my understanding that parboiling (or microwaving) chicken is 
     recommended in the current middle ages, too.  It insures that the meat is 
     cooked thoroughly, and takes less time than cooking from the raw state.  
     One problem:  don't precook the chicken until just before the grill is 
     ready, or plan on refrigerating immediately.

This is true. When we do grilled chickens for feasts we usually parboil them. I 
will not have complaints of "raw chicken" and my meals. The last Coronation I 
did, someone who I was hoping to impress got undercooked chicken. Seems that 
some of the help that it got farmed out to forgot to boil it.
