How long to bake chicken?

We get a lot of questions on how long to bake chicken in the oven. 

It’s so easy to overcook it and then it turns out dry and tough. 

We wanted to share a few tips with you on baking chicken in the oven.

Our Cheesy Parmesan Bacon Chicken is very moist. 

It has a delicious coating that helps to seal in the moisture.

You want to be sure you stop cooking your chicken as soon as the juices run clear or the internal temperature reaches 160 – 170 degrees F.

When your chicken is done cooking, tent it with foil for about 5-10 minutes as your prepare a side dish. 

This helps with juicy and tender meat.
