How to Make Baked Chicken
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Melt 1/4 cup butter or margarine in a large roasting pan.
- In a heavy-duty plastic bag, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add chicken pieces (about 2 lbs), a few at a time, to the bag. Shake until evenly coated.
- Arrange chicken in the roasting pan, skin-side down, on top of the melted butter.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Flip chicken pieces and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
- Remove chicken from oven. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Make gravy using the pan drippings (remove excess fat first), leftover flour from the bag, and chicken stock as desired.
