Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Use your fingers to loosen skin of chicken. Insert cheese under skin, using about 1 tablespoon for breasts and thighs and less for drumsticks and wings. Spread cheese over chicken as much as possible. Brush or rub skin with oil. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
2. Place chicken, skin side up, in a shallow baking pan and bake until skin is browned and crisp and juices run clear when pricked, 40 to 45 minutes
