Chicken pieces in a baking bag
Description
You'll definitely love this recipe for chicken pieces cooked in a bag! It's important to remember: the larger the pieces, the longer the chicken needs to cook. I used large pieces, so I baked them for an hour. If you cut the chicken into smaller pieces, 30–40 minutes should be enough.

Step 1
1. Cut the chicken (if you have a whole bird) into pieces. It's better to bake medium-sized pieces, so I simply divide the chicken into parts—wings, thighs, etc. Salt each piece and rub with spices. Let it rest for a while.

2. Tie the oven bag at one end. Place the chicken pieces inside the bag. Crush the garlic using a press by inserting your hand into the bag: this way, even the tiniest drops of garlic juice won't go to waste.

3. Tie the second end of the bag. Bake the chicken in the pouch for about 1 hour at a temperature of 170-180 degrees. If the bag puffs up, carefully prick it on top. The juice should not leak out onto the baking sheet.

4. About 10 minutes before the end of cooking, tear open the top of the bag, "exposing" the tops of the chicken pieces so they can brown. In the end, you'll get beautifully browned beauties like these!
