  5. Leave the chicken for at least one hour in the refrigerator. After one hour or more bring out the chicken out and let the chicken rests at room temperature before baking.


    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F while you're bringing the chicken to room temperature. 

  6. Place the chicken on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. If you notice the butter didn't spread all over the chicken after you put in the refrigerator when baking it will melt and help with the crispness while the inside is juicy and succulent.

  7. Bake the chicken for 55 minutes to 1 hour until the juice runs clear and the chicken is fully cooked. On the final last two minutes mark, I turned the oven to broil before turning the oven off. The baking time will differ because of the oven capabilities.
