Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (400°F).

  2. In a large bowl, toss the chicken with olive oil, salt, and pepper until the chicken is evenly coated.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The chicken is evenly coated with oil and seasoning. Turn the pieces in the bowl so the coating reaches all sides.

  3. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.

  4. Arrange the chicken on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

  5. Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (165°F).

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The chicken is cooked through and reaches the stated internal temperature. Check the thickest piece before removing the tray.

  6. While the chicken is baking, prepare your desired sauces and toppings.

  7. Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The chicken has rested before tossing. Resting helps the juices settle before adding the sauce or toppings.
