Which practice best prevents cross-contamination when thawing raw chicken in the walk-in cooler?

Giải thích

Raw chicken should be thawed in the cooler on the bottom shelf, in a pan or container that catches drips, and kept below and away from ready-to-eat foods so juices cannot contaminate them. Thawing above an open case of lettuce lets juices drip onto food that will never be cooked, an uncovered pan beside cooked brisket puts raw juices next to ready-to-eat food, and an overnight counter thaw is time-temperature abuse as well.
