How are Instructions to bake Classic Bake Chicken Breast Recipes
Ingredients for Classic Baked Chicken Breast Recipes
Preparation for Classic Baked Chicken Breast Recipes
1. Rinse chicken pieces in vinegar mixed with cold water to remove excess bacteria and pat dry with paper towels.
2. Coat the bottom of a roasting pan with olive oil. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken pieces with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Rub some olive oil and or pour a marinade over all of the chicken pieces in the roasting pan.
TIPS:The rubbing of oil over the chicken allows the seasoning to marinate faster into the chicken flesh.
3.Arrange the pieces skin-side up in the roasting pan so the largest pieces are in the center (the breasts) and there is little room between pieces so they aren't crowded in the pan. Give it 30 minutes to further marinate. Preheat oven to 400°F.
4.Cook for 30 minutes at 400°F. Then lower the heat to 350°F and cook for 45 minutes until juices run clear (not pink) when poked with a sharp knife. You could use an instant-read meat thermometer to check the chicken near the end of cooking to check for doneness. When the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees for breast meat, 180 for thighs (measured in the thickest part), the chicken is done.
5.Remove roasting pan from oven. Remove chicken from roasting pan to a serving plate.
6 To make gravy for the chicken, remove drippings from roast pan and place in a small saucepan and heat over medium flame on the stovetop. You can add meat sauce, Worcestershire sauce, tomato sauce, fresh ground pepper and salt to taste. Bring to a boil and add a two teaspoons flour paste to reduce to your desired thickness.
*While the chicken pieces are baking, if you bought a whole chicken that was then cut into pieces, you may use the back, the neck for making chicken stock. Chop the back and the neck into small pieces and place into a small saucepan, barely cover with water, bring to a simmer, cook while the chicken is cooking. When the chicken in the oven is done cooking, use the stock from simmering the extra pieces to make the gravy.
Serves 4. Serve with Mashed potatoes or Spanish rice and your desired vegetables.
