Recipe - Microwave Chicken Teriyaki In A Bag

3 pound Whole chicken
One fourth cup Soy sauce
1/3 cup Honey
1/3 cup Dry sherry
1 tablespoon Cornstarch
Microwave cooking bag

1. Into the cooking bag, place soy sauce, honey and sherry. Add whole
chicken to bag and tie securely. Place the bag into a 2quart oblong glass
baking dish. Refrigerate for 2 hours, turn the bag 23 times to allow
marinade to reach all surfaces of the chicken. 2. When ready to microwave,
cut a slit in the bag near the closure. If you are using a temperature
probe, insert through the slit into the thickest part of the thigh. Avoid
touching the bone. 3. Microwave at medium high until temperature reaches
190 degrees, or about 20 minutes. Temperature varies so check after about
17 minutes. Remove chicken from microwave. 4. Prepare the sauce. Into a
1quart glass measuring cup stir together 2 tablespoons water and 1
tablespoon cornstarch. Cut off one corner of the cooking bag and drain the
juices into the measuring cup with the cornstarch and water. Microwave on
high power for 2 minutes, stirring after one minute. Sauce should be thick
and clear. 5. Chicken should stand in bag for 10 minutes; remove bag
carefully, and place chicken on serving platter. Pour sauce over chicken
and serve immediately.
