Question

Sam is preparing lunch for 100 people. Today’s menu is Oven Fried Chicken, Steamed Corn, and Mashed Potatoes. Lunch service begins at 12:00pm. Consider the following:
-The chicken will take 30 minutes to bread and pan up. You then need to bake it for 30 minutes. -The corn is frozen and needs to be taken out of its packaging and placed in a perforated pan for steaming. Then it needs to steam for about 10 minutes.
-The potatoes must be peeled, cubed, and then boiled, taking about 1 hour. Then they must be drained, mashed, and seasoned, taking about 15 minutes.
Explain your timeline to complete these tasks. When would you start making lunch? What tasks would you complete and when?

Answer 1

If lunch is given at 12 pm and for everything to be cooked it would take approximately about 1 hr 47 mins you should start at 10 to give you enough time to prep and cook everything with some time left over. First you’d peel and dice potatoes then put the chicken to cook then finish putting the potatoes to cook then do the corn and everything should all be done around the same time
