All values are mean±standard deviation of three replicates (n=9).
A-CMeans within a row with different letters are significantly different (p<0.05).
Sensory scores were evaluated using a 10-point descriptive scale.
1)BC, chicken steak cooked with boiled; CO, chicken steak cooked with convective oven; GC, chicken steak cooked with grilling; MC, chicken steak cooked with microwave oven; SSC, chicken steak cooked with superheated steam.
