[CnD] Re; Baking Chicken

Absolutely, putting the spices under the skin will significantly help distribute the taste throughout the meet. Naturally, you can do this dry, however, mixing the spices with a little bit of olive oil or butter will also help to moisten the meat. Let the chicken marinate with the mixture under

Well, omit the cheese and sour cream. Instead of these great your own cheese, perhaps something with a bit of spice? I specifically say to great your own cheese because I have found that the cheeses that come already grated do not melt well. I have read this is because they are coated with a
