Updated 06/21/2020
Here is a great idea for your next family meal. This doesn’t take long to prepare (other than marinating), but that’s easy to start. Then just take the marinated chicken out of the fridge and wrap the bacon and toss in the oven. Pretty easy if you’re asking.
How long does it take to bake chicken at 400°?
Typically, it will take 20-25 minutes to bake chicken at 400°. That being said, you have to keep in mind that all ovens vary, as does the thickness of the chicken. You should aim to cook the chicken to a minimum of 165° internal temperature. Mine took 45 minutes.
How long does chicken take to bake at 350°?
Same as above, typically, it will take about 25-30 minutes to bake chicken at 350°. Keep in mind, all ovens vary as does the thickness of the chicken.
What temperature should the Bacon Ranch Chicken be cooked to in the oven?
The safest internal temperature for chicken (poultry) is 165°. I’m a little freak about my poultry and I always cook mine to 170° – 175°. Make sure you always have a thermometer to check.
