Frequently Asked Questions

What knife do you use to cut cooked chicken?

The type of knife you use to cut cooked chicken depends on the dish you're preparing and your personal preferences. For example, if you're slicing chicken breast for a sandwich, you might want to use a serrated knife. If you're chopping chicken for a salad or stir-fry, a chef's knife or Santoku knife would be a good choice.

Whatever knife you choose, it's important to keep it sharp. A dull blade will not only make cutting more difficult, but it can also be dangerous. A sharp knife is much less likely to slip and cause accidental cuts.

When cutting cooked chicken, always use a cutting board. Chicken can harbor bacteria that can contaminate other foods, so it's important to keep them separate. And be sure to wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling raw chicken.
