To think DH might have poisoned us - undercooked chicken kiev

Last night DH cooked frozen chicken Kiev for dinner. I was really hungry so had already scoffed half of it when DH declared that he didn't think it was cooked. On closer inspection, it was a bit soft & soggy but didn't really look pink (well maybe a slight tinge). Turned out it had only been in the oven 20 mins when packet said 28-32!

It"s fair to say that our oven is quite fierce and food often appears done before the stated time. However, being cautious, I always leave it in for at least the minimum recommended time, especially, chicken. DH often accuses me of cremating food but I'd rather it was a bit well done than get sick!

I"m so cross, we have a busy weekend ahead and can't afford to be ill! It's been 11 hours and so far so good. Are we out of the woods or is there still timeConfused

It may depend on what you're doing with the chicken. Grin

2 weeks for food poisoning to appear? I'm a nurse, this is utter bollocks. Usually 8 hours so I'm sure you'll be fine wink

Nope- it depends on the infection as to how long the incubation period is:

  • Campylobacter 2-4 days;
  • Salmonella typically 3 days but up to 16 in rare cases
  • Ecoli- typically 3-4 days but up to 10 days for symptoms to show
  • Listeria- the AVERAGE incubation is 30 days;

Defend sob the product the more processed ones are cooked, the whole fillet ones tend to be raw.
