Cut Chicken

Chef Jason Hill of http://www.CookingSessions.com shows you how to cut chicken in this episode of "Chef Tips."

To cut whole chicken, you'll need a good pair of kitchen shears and a chef knife. In this video, chef Jason demonstrates how to cut a whole chicken with ease.

One of the most popular methods is the 8 cut chicken, which divides the hen into 8 pieces. This includes the two breast pieces, two drumsticks, two thighs and two wings.

Jason also shows how to cut chicken wings, and remove the tip (which is perfect for making chicken stock). He also demonstrates the proper method on how to cut a chicken breast in half.

The next time your friends ask how to cut a whole chicken into 8 pieces, show them this video. It comes in handy for any chicken recipes calling for braising, grilling, stewing and barbecue.

Great! You should make a video and show us.

I am not trying to show off how fast I can cut up a chicken. It's more of a tutorial. When you separate the joints you are less likely to chip off some bone which could end up on the plate.
