Question: 1 / 400

What is the minimum internal cooking temperature for poultry?

145 degrees for 4 minutes

155 degrees for 15 seconds

165 degrees for 15 seconds

In order to safely and thoroughly cook poultry, the minimum internal cooking temperature should be at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 seconds. The other options listed can potentially result in the poultry being undercooked and not reaching the necessary temperature to kill harmful bacteria. Option A of 145 degrees for 4 minutes may not be sufficient for certain types of poultry and can result in the meat being undercooked. Options B and D have slightly higher temperatures but for shorter time periods, which also increases the risk of the poultry being undercooked. Therefore, option C is the best choice for ensuring that poultry is fully cooked and safe to consume.
