Which Rack To Bake Chicken In Oven

I have a question about how to bake chicken thighs on a rack.

Which rack to bake chicken in oven.

I have bone in skin on chicken thighs and up til now i ve been baking them in a baking dish. Arrange chicken legs in a single layer on wire rack. Cooking the chicken at a higher temperature positioned on an oven safe cooling rack will allow for air to circulate both underneath and on top of your chicken essentially meaning we are roasting. Bake until the chicken is 165 f.

Total cooking time is usually 30 to 40 minutes. Bake the chicken on an oven safe rack. Transfer the chicken to the oven until the chicken is completely opaque all the way through and registers 165 f on an instant read thermometer. This ensures even cooking and browning.

Start checking after 20 minutes. An egg coating is pretty traditional but combining the egg with mayo helps the coating stick to the chicken and stay moist in the oven. Add the cream cheese to the dish cover and return to the oven uncovered for 5 more minutes or until the cream cheese starts to melt. This is the secret step that makes baking the chicken even faster and juicier.

Bake covered for 45 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees f. Bake the chicken on a wire rack.
