How long do you bake chicken legs?
I can't tell you exactly how long to bake chicken legs without more information! The baking time depends on a few factors:
* Size of the chicken legs: Larger legs will take longer to cook than smaller ones.
* Oven temperature: A higher temperature will cook the chicken faster.
* Whether the chicken is bone-in or boneless: Bone-in legs will take longer to cook.
* Whether the chicken is skin-on or skinless: Skin-on chicken will cook more evenly and retain moisture.
Here's a general guide:
* Bone-in, skin-on chicken legs: 40-45 minutes at 375°F (190°C)
* Boneless, skinless chicken legs: 25-30 minutes at 375°F (190°C)
To ensure your chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer:
* Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh.
* Chicken is safe to eat when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Tips for baking chicken legs:
* Preheat your oven to the desired temperature.
* Season the chicken liberally with your favorite herbs and spices.
* Place the chicken legs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
* Bake the chicken until it's cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
* Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before carving and serving.
I hope this helps!
