4. Bigger chance of food poisoning
Handling chicken is always a hassle. If you haven’t cooked the meat all the way through or if your vegetables happen to come in contact with raw chicken, you may be exposing your meal to salmonella or campylobacter. These bacteria are notorious for their nasty effects on the human body, as they can lead to severe illness. It’s especially important for vulnerable groups of people, such as the elderly, children, and pregnant women, to avoid this type of contamination at all costs.
