3-501.15; Priority Foundation; Two pans of tightly wrapped pans of chicken breasts 124-131F are cooling at room temperature on the cutting board. Employee has left for break responsible for cooking them. Some cooling may occur at room temperature, but would not have the plastic wrap tightly sealed across the top of the pans with a vacuum drawn from the heat. Rapid Cooling Methods need to be used. Cool from 135F to 70F in two hours or less. Leave chicken unwrapped in a shallow layer (as observed with egg on the sheet pan) or leave the chicken open, vented for steam to escape. Chicken was moved within 20 minutes to the walk-in cooler upon request.

General Comments
Soap dispenser mounted to the wall outside the splash-guard and above the rice warmers was moved during today's inspection to be inside the splash-guards. . . Shelving near the mop sink was moved during inspection to protect stored utensils from potential splash from dumping mop water. A protective shield may be helpful if shelving is moved to the left of the mop sink.
