how long to bake chicken at 375
The baking time for chicken at 375°F (190°C) depends on several factors, including the type and size of the chicken, its thickness, and whether it’s boneless or bone-in. Here are some general guidelines:
Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts:
- Small breasts (6 oz or 170g): 15-20 minutes
- Medium breasts (8 oz or 225g): 20-25 minutes
- Large breasts (10 oz or 280g): 25-30 minutes
Bone-in Chicken Breasts:
- Small breasts (6 oz or 170g): 25-30 minutes
- Medium breasts (8 oz or 225g): 30-35 minutes
- Large breasts (10 oz or 280g): 35-40 minutes
Chicken Thighs:
- Boneless, skinless thighs (4 oz or 115g): 15-20 minutes
- Bone-in thighs (6 oz or 170g): 25-30 minutes
Chicken Wings:
- Bone-in wings (2 oz or 55g): 20-25 minutes
- Boneless wings (2 oz or 55g): 15-20 minutes
Chicken Tenders:
- Breaded and boneless tenders (2 oz or 55g): 10-15 minutes
- Unbreaded and boneless tenders (2 oz or 55g): 8-12 minutes
Whole Chicken:
- 3-4 lbs (1.4-1.8 kg): 45-55 minutes
- 4-5 lbs (1.8-2.3 kg): 55-65 minutes
- 5-6 lbs (2.3-2.7 kg): 65-75 minutes
Remember to always check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it reaches a safe minimum of 165°F (74°C). You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
Keep in mind that these times are approximate and may vary depending on your oven’s performance and the chicken’s thickness. Always check the chicken for doneness by cutting into the thickest part of the breast or thigh. If it’s not cooked through, return it to the oven for a few more minutes.
