Make the Best Chicken Salad

BREAKING DOWN A CHICKEN, MAKING PARTS

It may seem intimidating, but carving a whole roasted chicken isn't difficult. Here are the step-by-step tips you'll need to make this task effortless every time.

STEP 1

Cut where the leg meets the breast, then pull the leg away. Separate the joint by pressing the leg out and pushing up on the join, then cut through the joint.

STEP 2

Cut through the joint that connects the drumstick to the thigh. Repeat on the second side to remove the other leg.

STEP 3

Cut down along one side of the breastbone, pulling the breast meat away from the bone as you cut.

STEP 4

Remove the wing from the breast by cutting through the wing joint. Slice the breast into attractive slices.
