stupid chicken question

Is it ok to cook a whole baked chicken WITHOUT the skin?

My DH really does not like the skin.

Please pardon my lack of knowledge.

The skin is what keeps it juicy while it's cooking. You're better off cooking it with the skin and removing it before serving.

i agree with liz - i think if you take the skin off before cooking, the chicken will dry out too much.

If you're going to cook it without the skin, I would strongly suggest seasoning it very well and then making a pouch out of tin foil to cook it in to retain the natural juices and then just roast it for a few minutes at the end with the foil open.

I rip off the skin on drumsticks before even marinating them,, they came out very moist and delish..;

if you are going to roast a whole chicken like that i would wrap it in parchment paper with some butter to keep it moist
