The most common found on raw chicken is:

Salmonella Enteritidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Campylobacter jejuni, and Listeria monocytogenes.

The best way to deal with these is through proper cooking, which can be a little tricky with chicken. The best form of antibacterial cooking is boiling. Pressure cooking doesn’t achieve much more effect until you get to 15 psi for 30 minutes, which would ruin most food.

However, other ingredients can also be very potent as antiseptics. Oregano, for example, is an incredibly powerful herb.

Oregano oil is the most potent plant oil on the planet – Antibacterial, Antiviral, Antifungal, Anti-parasitic, Anti-allergy, Anti-venom, and an Antioxidant. It has a huge list of chemicals with potent effects, and its combination of anesthetics almost rises to the class of morphine.

If you have cooked your chicken enough to sanitize it, then use some oregano oil in your recipe to help keep leftovers clean.

I will tell you a story. This thread is about bacteria...so, my story will eventually dovetail. I did surgery for 35 years. General and trauma surgery. I got a call from a GP friend who asked me to see this fellow in the ER. He and his wife had watched a porno flick and then tried what they saw in the film....that being placing a 'new potato' (small red potato) on the end of a garden hose. The wife then inserted the potato and distal garden hose in the husbands rectum, then truned the water on full blast. Well, he blew out his colon. He was so filled with shame he did not seek medical help for 3 full days. The GP then told me he was not going to tell me that story, but that is what happened. Obviously he had an acute surgical abdomen. When I entered his abdomen fluid, feces, turnomas, ....all began to spill out. It was like a septic tank. I gagged, wretches, and dry-heaved,...but I began to clean it out of the abdomen. It took about three hours...first, simply picking turds out, then suctioning out floating remnants, then suctioning out the brown stool-stained fluid, We washed, and washed, sucked and sucked. We took laparotomy packs (over 100) and wiped out as much crap as we could. Slowly the fluid began to clear up, at first tea colored, then light brown,...on to clear. We had crap all over the OR. I put in 6 drains and closed the belly wall, but not the subcutaneous fat and skin. I packed the wound with Iodofor gauze.

Now I tell you all of this to say....I left in billions and billions of all kinds of bacteria, yeast, and fungi. Of course he was on triple antibiotic therapy. But.....there was no way to remove all of the microbes. I removed 98% of all bacteria....the immune system did the rest.

THis guy never even had a fever.

Now, the reason I told you this story. In surgery, we have an old saw...."The solution to pollution, is dilution".

Wash those damn chickens.
