When you are done, if you did not contaminate the remaining mixture with the wet chicken, you can take whats left and store in freezer for the next time. I like to keep extra seasoning already prepared in freezer.
• 4. Place pan with rack in preheated 425 degree F. oven and bake for 25 minutes. Then REDUCE TEMPERATURE to 350 degrees F, and continue to cook for 50 to 55 minutes or until juices run clear. Pieces should be fully cooked and a nice golden brown color.
