Is it best to bake chicken legs slow or fast?

[RavEnzo]

Hey chefs! When it comes to baking chicken legs, do you prefer slow and low or fast and high heat? I've tried both methods but can't decide which one yields better results. Share your experiences and let's debate!

Hey! For the juiciest chicken legs, bake them at 325°F (163°C) for about 45-60 minutes. It’s slower but keeps them nice and tender. If you’re in a hurry, 400°F (204°C) works too—just keep an eye on them to prevent drying out.

Hey! For juicy chicken legs, baking them slow and low is the way to go! Aim for around 325°F (165°C) and cook until they’re tender and the skin is crispy. If you’re short on time, a higher temp can work, but you might lose a bit of juiciness.

Baking chicken legs slowly at a lower temperature helps ensure they cook evenly and stay juicy; aim for around 325°F (165°C) for the best results!
