Cooking Guidelines
Cooking Instructions - General. Cooking appliances vary. These instructions are given as a guide. Please ensure that the product is piping hot throughout before serving. Ensure product is thoroughly cooked and that juices run clear and that no pink colour remains. Avoid bag touching heating elements or flame in oven. Do not re-heat. If product is frozen, defrost thoroughly and cook as chilled. Not suitable for microwave cooking.; Oven cook - From Chilled. Oven - Do not remove any packaging. Pierce the pack where indicated.
Pre-heat your oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6. Place the bagged chicken in a deep roasting tray and cook in the centre of the oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and using a pair of scissors cut the bag along the dotted line and remove panel. Caution: Take care when opening the bag as steam may escape. Return to the oven for a further 10 minutes. Take extra care when removing from the oven and opening the bag as it will contain hot cooking juices. To ensure the chicken is fully cooked, insert a skewer into the thickest part of the meat. If the juices run clear, not pink, it is fully cooked. For tenderness and succulence, allow the chicken to rest at room temperature inside the bag for 5 minutes before carving.

Disappointing
Very disappointing chicken. The cooked chicken had a strange texture. It was slimy and didnt even taste of chicken. The way that the legs came away from the carcass and the amount of slimy, inedible meat left on the bone make us think it was some kind of mutant chicken. I had used several of these kinds of chicken in a bag before with great results but this one has put me off completely. Best avoided.

Easy to cook, lovely flavour
We have this chicken regularly, and always enjoy it. I find it easy to cook and don't understand why there should be any difficulty following the instructions as other have noted. There's a small circle printed top centre, which is where you pierce the bag before cooking to let out excess steam. The dotted line lower down round the bag is where you cut it 10 minutes before it finishes to allow the skin to brown & crisp up. Always gives good results doing it this way. An added bonus of the bag is not having to handle the raw chicken before it goes in the oven.
