Its clear that Ina Garten loves chicken as much as we do.
First, I slightly undercook it, she says.
If you overcook chicken, it gets very dry.
She finishes the reel by saying, You wont believe what a difference it makes.
And if youve never heard of this cooking method before, it might sound outlandish.
Undercook and chicken dont go in the same sentence for me, says one person in the comment section.
But theres actually a culinary term to describe what Garten has shown us.
Its called carryover cooking.
Then, you allow the food to continue cooking off the heat, usually covered.
