Baked Chicken

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 350.
2. 2
   Pour chicken broth (you can also use equal parts of wate and broth) into 13 x 9 glass baking dish or roasting pan.
3. 3
   Place chicken with the skin side up in the pan.
4. 4
   Divide the butter so that you put little bits of butter on top of each piece of chicken (the butter plus the broth keeps the chicken moist).
5. 5
   Sprinkle with salt and pepper, if desired.
6. 6
   Cook for 30-40 minutes.
7. 7
   Check for doneness using an instant read thermometer ~~ breast meat should be 170 degrees and thigh or leg meat 180 degrees (make sure the thermometer isn't touching bone as this skews the temperature reading).
