    Current UK food safety advice is to NOT rinse or wash poultry before cooking (since it spreads any bacteria which is on the raw meat all over the sink). You can make double the sauce so that you can pour half over the chicken at step 5 and heat the rest to serve over the cooked chicken on the plate. - 7/16/15
