Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius/ 360 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil. Let the meat stand on the counter while you preheat the oven.
  2. Mix oil and spices in a small bowl.
  3. Rub: Place chicken parts on the tray. Pour the spice mixture over them and rub them well with the hands until completely coated. Arrange in a single layer and skin side up on the tray.
  4. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until cooked through. Make sure to check; there is no red or pink allowed. The best way to check is with a digital meat thermometer; the internal temperature of the chicken should be 74 degrees Celsius/ 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Notes

  • Other spices or spice mixtures can be used instead.
  • Allow 50% more cooking time when cooking frozen chicken. Always check that the meat is cooked through
