While frozen chicken is inferior in taste to the fresh variety, free-range frozen birds have more flavor than fresh battery chickens. Remember that frozen poultry has water which drains out when the bird is defrosted, so weigh the bird after it has thawed to calculate the cooking time. Defrost the chicken in the refrigerator, allowing 2 hours per 500 g. When buying packs of frozen poultry, avoid any with pink ice crystals as these show signs of thawing and refreezing.
