- 5.Refrigerate chicken for 1 hour.
- 6.Remove chicken from refrigerator and sprinkle lightly with paprika for color.
- 7. Space chicken evenly on greased baking pan.
- 8. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for another 30–40 minutes or until meat can easily be pulled away from the bone with fork. Drumsticks may require less baking time than breasts. Crumbs will form crispy “skin.”
