FAQs

How do you bake chicken without drying it out?

The key to baking chicken without drying it out is to cook them using a high-heat, preventing overcooking. You can also brine your chicken with some water and a few tablespoons of salt to help ensure the meat is tender. 

Can you reheat chicken tray bake? 

Absolutely! All you need to do is cover it with foil and pop it back in the oven, for 15 – 20 minutes. Alternatively, pop it in the microwave for a few minutes to heat up the inside. While you can often reheat food more than once, stick to just one time for chicken to avoid drying it out and also nasty bacteria!

How long do you cook chicken breast in the oven? 

This will all depend on your recipe! For our chicken tray bake, you’ll need to cook it in the oven for 40 minutes. Other recipes will only need the chicken to be in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
