The stubborn chicken

"What are you making?”
“Garlic chicken.”
“Smells good. Can you teach me how to make it?”
“May be next year, but for now you can watch and pick up a few pointers.”
“OK. What do you do first?
“Good question. That reminds me of an incident that happend during my student life. My roommate got hold of a recipe and decided to try his hands on a chicken for the very first time. He called me up for help after two hours, complaining and cursing the stubborn chicken that totally refused to cook."
“So, what did you do?”
“I told him to remove the sealed plastic warp from the chicken first.”
