Notes
How do you know when chicken is done?
The best way is to use a meat thermometer and check the temperature in the thickest part of the meat. It should be 165°F. Can I bake this in the oven instead?
You can – just prepare it as instructed, place it in a baking dish, and bake it at 350°F for 20 to 30 minutes or until it’s cooked through.
