Diced white and dark boneless skinless meat.
Prep instructions.
To prepare diced chicken for school meals, follow these steps:
Thaw the Chicken (if frozen):
Place the frozen diced chicken in the refrigerator overnight to safely thaw. If pressed for time, use a cold water bath, changing the water every 30 minutes until thawed.
Cooking the Chicken:
Oven Method: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the diced chicken in a single layer on a baking sheet. Lightly season with salt, pepper, or other spices as needed, and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Stovetop Method: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil. Add the diced chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook, stirring frequently, for 8-10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches 165°F (74°C).
Steaming (for large batches): Place the diced chicken in a steamer tray and steam for 15-20 minutes, checking to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Holding and Serving:
After cooking, hold the chicken in a warming tray or hot holding cabinet at 140°F (60°C) until ready to serve. Ensure the chicken is served within two hours for optimal food safety.
Portioning:
For school meals, portion the diced chicken according to the meal guidelines, typically 2-3 oz per serving.

Company information.
All We do is Chicken, and Everything we do is chicken! We're proud to offer you large quantities of chicken & chicken products at competitive prices sourced directly From Small Family Farms. NY State Grown & Certified! Air-Chilled! USDA Slaughtered & Processed!
Our superior butchering process includes air chilling, a cutting edge method to cool the meat to safe temperatures and preserve freshness. Other companies cool their chicken in chemical-laden water baths, meaning your chicken absorbs both! At Morning Star Poultry we believe your family deserves better than that. Our poultry is butchered right here in New York on the same day it is received through our doors. After carefully and precisely following all USDA regulations during the butchering process, we pass our product through several environmentally controlled cooling chambers where purified cold air circulates the product. The result is a healthier, safer, and flavorful chicken.
