Cook your Chicken

1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

c) Once the oven is hot, roast the chicken on the middle shelf of your oven until browned and cooked through, 16-18 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
