Does chicken really need to be 165?
The FDA Food Code recommends cooking chicken to 165xb0F (74). But the pasteurization of chicken is actually a function of both temperature and time. If you can hold your chicken at 145xb0F (63) for 8.5 minutes, you can achieve the same bacterial reduction as at 165xb0F (74).
Can you eat chicken at 160 degrees?
Cooking chicken breasts to 160+xb0F produces a dry and sometimes chalky texture rather than a juicy and tender piece of meat.
