How to Tell It's Done
- until the chicken is cooked
Tips
- Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
Common Mistakes
- Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
More Ways
- A tablespoon of raw tahini in a marinade of olive oil, paprika, garlic and salt per kilo of boneless chicken thighs; marinate at least half an hour, and if there's time, an hour or two in the fridge.
- Tahini sauce for chicken breast in a baking dish: equal amounts of raw tahini and cold water, 2–3 tablespoons lemon juice and half a teaspoon salt; bake at 200°C (390°F) for about 15 minutes.
