NOTE: Chicken Test for Doneness (per Washington Fryer Commission, 1994)
No matter what method you use for cooking chicken, the most accurate test for doneness is a meat thermometer. Since chicken is never ready to be served unless it is done, always be sure it is completely cooked. Boneless chicken should be cooked to 165°F.
