Introduction

So, you’ve decided to cook your chicken at 450 degrees. How long will it take? That depends on the size of the pieces and the thickness of the meat. The good news is that chicken cooks quickly and isn’t difficult to prepare—but first, we’ll tell you a little more about how much time you need to cook chicken at a high temperature.

Chicken breasts

Chicken breasts are a popular choice for many home cooks because they’re relatively inexpensive, easy to find and versatile. They can be prepared in many different ways, from sauteed chicken breasts with mushrooms and onions to grilled chicken breast sandwiches. Chicken breasts are also an excellent source of protein and provide healthy fats, vitamins A and B6 as well as selenium (source: National Institutes of Health).

Chicken breasts have a tendency to dry out if overcooked; therefore it’s important that you use a meat thermometer when cooking them so that you don’t end up with tough or dry meat. If using an instant-read digital thermometer with a probe attachment (as opposed to one with an LCD display), insert it into the thickest part of your chicken breast while still frozen. Once inserted into thawed meat–or immediately after cooking–the temperature will rise quickly; therefore make sure not to leave it in place any longer than necessary before reading (or else its reading will become inaccurate).

Chicken thighs

Chicken thighs are a great option for cooking at 450 degrees. They’re good for you and they taste delicious, too!

Here’s how to cook chicken thighs:

• Turn your oven on to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (232 Celsius).
• Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish with sides that are at least 1 inch high so the juices don’t spill out while they cook; if there aren’t any pans with high enough sides in your kitchen, consider using foil or parchment paper instead. You can also use ramekins and put some butter on top of each one before adding the chicken meat just so it doesn’t stick to your pan when it melts during cooking time (butter does melt faster than oil does).
• . Bake for 15 minutes before flipping over onto their other side; this will give them about 5 more minutes until done depending on how thickly sliced yours were cut originally; check every minute after flipping over again until fully cooked throughly throughout all parts–you’ll know because then there won’t be any pinkness left anywhere inside these pieces anymore!

Chicken drumsticks

• 20 minutes
• Turn every 5 minutes, until juices run clear. Remove from oven and let cool before serving.

There are different ways to cook chicken at 450

There are many ways to cook chicken at 450 degrees. The first thing you should do is decide what kind of chicken you want to make, and then choose the best method for it. Here are some common styles:

• Roast Chicken – This style of cooking involves roasting a whole bird in an oven or on top of a stovetop with dry heat. It’s usually done at high temperatures (around 450 degrees Fahrenheit), which makes it great for getting crispy skin!
• Grilled Chicken – Grilling can be done either directly over charcoal or gas flames, or indirectly by placing them near heat sources such as grates that have been heated up by coals below them or infrared burners above them. This method allows cooks to add their own flavors through marinades before putting their birds on skewers so they can cook evenly throughout all parts without drying out too quickly after being exposed directly against hot metal surfaces like grates would otherwise cause them too much moisture loss during cooking time periods when nothing else happens other than heating up air temperature around where they’re sitting there waiting patiently while still being exposed directly onto those same hot surfaces…

Conclusion

The most important thing to remember when cooking chicken is that it’s not a one size fits all type of meat. Different cuts and parts require different cooking times, so make sure you know which one you’re using before you start your barbecue or oven.
