A meat thermometer is a useful device to make sure your chicken breast is thoroughly cooked but not overcooked.

I recommend

With a whole chicken the metric isn't it through the thigh.
Bone in thigh cooks faster. Breast is a great carver but if the thigh is over. The breast in knackered.

Lol. My sister uses a meat thermometer. She plunges it through the breast. When I pointed out she had gone right through to the well-packed citrusy, garlicky stuffing which was boiling, she wasn't happy.

You may be right with Whole Chicken but my concern here was a Chicken Breast only. I was 20 above the safety reading of 165 °F but it hadn't dried out.

Feeling better for the first time after my surgery. Had my first slice of toast for months and a good night of internationals on the cards.
