Do not wash raw chicken in the sink; this spreads bacteria onto surrounding surfaces and foods via aerosolized droplets.
4
Bake in the preheated oven at 200°C for 20-25 minutes until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer reads at least 74°C (165°F) in the thickest part.

According to USDA/EFSA food safety standards, poultry must reach an internal temperature of at least 74°C (165°F) to ensure safety.
5
Remove from oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 5 minutes before slicing so the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
