Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use bone-in chicken instead of boneless?

Yes, you can use bone-in chicken; just adjust the cooking time to ensure it reaches a safe internal temperature of 165°F. Bone-in pieces may take a bit longer to cook, so check for doneness after about an hour, adding more time if needed.

What can I use instead of olive oil?

If you don’t have olive oil, you can substitute with canola oil or melted butter. Both options will provide a nice flavor and help the chicken stay moist during cooking.

Can I prepare this dish ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can assemble the dish a day ahead and refrigerate it. Just be sure to let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking to ensure even cooking. This can save time on busy weeknights or during meal prep.
