  3. Insert a cold clean core temperature probe into the center of the chicken breast.

  4. Load the chicken into the preheated oven. Place a sheet pan under the chicken to catch any grease and juices. NOTE: the juices can be used for sauces if desired.

  5. Close the door, connect the probe wire to the front of the control panel. Set the probe temperature to 185°F. Lower the oven temperature to 280°F. Bake for approximate 45 minutes. The chicken will be golden brown, juicy inside and crispy outside.
