Are there any benefits of cooking chicken in an oven bag?
Cooking a whole chicken in an oven bag is similar to cooking in foil, where the meat stays tender, moist and succulent, and there is less to clean up! There is less likelihood of the breast meat drying out before the thigh meat is cooked through. Unlike foil, oven bags can be used in both conventional ovens and microwaves. Vegetables can be added halfway through the cooking and any juices can be used to make a sauce.
