How do you bake chicken?

Answer by  Latin4 (11170)

ou can use this information whether its a whole chicken or other pieces. Wash the chicken and pat dry. Put the chicken in a roasting pan with salt, pepper and I use paprika. This makes it a little brown. Cover and cook at 350 for about 1 hr. With the pieces you can do the same thing.

You season thawed chicken and place it in a shallow pan in the center of the oven at approximately 375 degrees. Leave it in the oven approximately 45 minutes, turn the pieces over and bake for another 30-ish, and it should be good.

I season the chicken with seasoning salt and place it in a casserole dish with the lid on. You may need to add some water to the dish but not much. I bake mine for 400 degrees for at least an hour. If you want the meat to get crispy, take the lid off towards the end.

Wash and season the bird. Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees farenheit and place the whole chicken on a cooking pan. Bake for three to four hours. Seasoning, aside from salt, can include mustard, worcestershire sauce or lime juice applied to the exterior of the bird.

Baked chicken is pretty bland unless seasoned first. Leave the skin on and rub all over with a mixture of cooking oil/butter, salt, pepper, a poultry seasoning mixture/sage.

Firstly, make sure your chicken is defrosted, cleaned and patted dry. Don't forget to remove the parts from the inside cavity, too. Then just keep it simple get whatever seasoning you like and some butter and rub it in to the outside of the chicken. Make sure the entire bird is covered with the butter and seasoned well.
