To get that perfection you need to hover over the pan like a hawk and pull the breasts out first, letting the drumsticks and thighs cook longer. That’s too much fuss for a weekday dinner. I solved this challenge by using just chicken drumsticks and thighs that I cook to 185F internal temperature....
