Tips

  • Ensure chicken is evenly coated with seasonings for even flavor distribution.
  • Spread olive oil evenly in the baking pan for a crispy chicken bottom.
  • Add a pinch more salt and olive oil on top of the chicken before baking for a crispy top.
  • Roast garlic can be used instead of fresh garlic for convenience.
  • If you want soupier rice, use a full carton of chicken stock instead of 3/4.
  • Be mindful of adding extra salt as many seasonings already contain it.
