The cooking time for chicken in the oven can vary depending on the cut of chicken and the oven temperature you're using. Here are some general guidelines for popular chicken cuts at a temperature of 375°F (190°C):
- Whole chicken (unstuffed): Approximately 20 minutes per pound (450 grams) of chicken.
- Whole chicken (stuffed): Approximately 25 minutes per pound (450 grams) of chicken.
- Chicken breasts (boneless, skinless): About 20-30 minutes.
- Chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on): About 35-45 minutes.
- Chicken drumsticks: About 35-45 minutes.
- Chicken wings: About 30-40 minutes.
Keep in mind that these are only estimates, and the exact cooking time may vary depending on the size and thickness of the chicken pieces. The most reliable way to determine if the chicken is done is by using a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of the thickest part of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C) to ensure it's fully cooked and safe to eat.
