USA food safetyRinsing or Soaking Chicken
Washing raw poultry before cooking it is not recommended. Bacteria in raw meat and poultry juices can be spread to other foods, utensils, and surfaces. This is called cross-contamination. Rinsing or soaking chicken does not destroy bacteria. Any bacteria that might be present on fresh chicken are destroyed only by cooking.

15th April 2011 Cooking Chicken
When cooking chicken, do not wash or soak the chicken before hand.
It does not kill or remove the bacteria.
All it does is spread the bacteria around to surfaces and anything the water comes into contact with.
