This is the best 13-Carving Poultry recipe on the web!!
When carving poultry, get the best results-safely-by using a sharp knife and a meat fork. A carving knife works the best because it has a long, curved blade. A meat for has a long handle and two tines. Carve poultry on a stable cutting board. Carving is simpler if the bird is allowed to stand for 15 to 20 minutes before cutting. This resting period allows the meat to become firmer and the juices to stay in the bird, making it easier to carve smooth, uniform slices.
HOW TO CARVE CHICKEN AND TURKEY
1. Place bird, breast up, with legs to carver's right if right-handed or to the left if left-handed. Remove ties or skewers.
2. While gently pulling leg and thigh away from body, cut through joint between leg and body. Separate drumstick (leg) and thigh by cutting down through connecting joint.
* Special Note for Turkey: Remove and separate drumstick (leg) and thigh as directed above, and serve them whole or carve them. To carve, remove meat from drumstick (leg) by slicing at an angle, and slice thigh by cutting even slices parallel to the bone.
3. Make a deep horizontal cut into breast just above wing. Insert fork in top of breast, and starting halfway up breast, carve thin slices down to the horizontal cut, working from outer edge of bird to the center.
4. Now just repeat steps 1 through 3 on the other side of the bird!
