How long are you supposed to bake chicken?!


Question: How long are you supposed to bake chicken!?
Answers:
Chicken recipes bake for different times depending on what you are baking!.
Generally I find that if you are baking or roasting whole chicken, it bakes for 20 min!. per pound unstuffed, and 30 min, per pound stuffed!.
As for cut up chicken I would use the same baking times, but check the chicken for doness after 30 minutes onward!. It also depends on how much you are baking at one time by weight and extra ingredients added to the chicken recipeWww@FoodAQ@Com

Kayla, make sure you use a thermometer!. Around 175 degrees deep inside!. Nowadays, with e-coli and salmonella, using granny's cooking methods don't get it!.

That goes for pork, beef, fish etc!., also!. Especially any kind of ground meat!. You can cook a steak a little rare, but never ground hamburger!. Going rare on ground meat is very dangerous!.

Kind of unrelated, but you hear a lot about "raw" vegetables and vitamins and nutrients these days!? Cooking and steaming vege's doesn't hurt their vitamin or mineral content!. Remember that big spinach "recall"!? If you'd cooked your spinach, you had nothing to worry about!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Assuming a reasonable sized bird, 15 minutes at 220 degrees C (428 F Gas regulo 7-8) and another 60 minutes at 175 degrees C (350 F Gas regulo 4)!. If the bird's not very big, cut back on the 60 minutes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

At least an hour!.!.!.but to check to make sure its done, cut in the middle and check to make sure the chicken is white!.!.!.no pink!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends on the weight of it but around 15-20 minutes per pound!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

if its a fan forced oven (like mine) about 65mins!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
