Does undercooked chicken cause food poisoning?
user
Undercooked chicken can increase the risk of food poisoning, as it may contain harmful bacteria that have not been destroyed by cooking. It is best to make sure that chicken is fully cooked, until there is no pink in the centre. The safest thing to do if in doubt is to ensure that chicken reaches a safe minimum internal temperature of 75°C or higher throughout the entire chunk.
