When baked, chicken remains a very healthy product with excellent taste qualities, but if the technique is incorrect, the meat loses its juiciness.
This applies to both individual parts of the chicken and the entire carcass.
With the help of some secrets you can make the product juicy and tasty.
3 Cooking Tricks to Remember
The right marinade
In order for the taste of chicken to change for the better, it is necessary to make sure that the marinade soaks all the meat. Therefore, they try to cut the pieces.
The marinade can be anything. The main task is not to overdo it with flavors.
For an appetizing crust
In order for chicken meat to have a great crust, you need to properly prepare the meat for the baking process. To do this, remove the remains of the marinade with a paper towel.
Then mix the salt with the spices and coat the surface of the chicken.
Correct temperature conditions
It is extremely important to set the right temperature when baking chicken. First, we set the temperature to 220 degrees. Thanks to this, the crust "sets".
Afterwards the temperature drops to 180 degrees.
A whole chicken takes about 50 minutes to bake. If you are cooking thighs and drumsticks in the oven, you will have to wait about 35 minutes. But the delicious wings will be ready in just a quarter of an hour.
