To check if chicken is fully cooked

I know there are bound to be many other ways to check this, but here are 3 ways you can make sure your chicken dinner is done.

1. Use a meat thermometer and make sure the internal temperature reaches 165°
2. Use a fork and poke chicken bomb in the center and if the liquid runs clear, you are in the clear!
3. Use a knife to pierce the center of the chicken bomb and make sure the chicken fully white…no pink
