Do I HAVE to flip chicken breasts halfway through baking?

Do I HAVE to flip over chicken breasts halfway through baking? Is it going to screw it up that bad if I don't flip it?

 

[dug777]

no

For baking, I don't think they need to be flipped..

You don't have to but the chicken might look better if you flip it.

No, unless your oven has a hotspot.

no, I never have.

You should only flip them if they still have their bones in them, otherwise it does not do any good.

1. smack it
2. flip it
3. rub it down

No you don't have to flip them, but they'll brown evenly on both sides & cook more evenly if you do.

I don't flip them usually, but I bet it'll cook better and look better if you do.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I never flip them.

hey baby, it's a free country.

You don't even HAVE to cook the damn chicken breasts. Hell, just go find a free range chicken and start nawing on it
