Getting into cooking slowly and for longer

[chocolate moose]

Would chicken (pieces) benefit from a longer, slower cooking, rather than cooking at 375 or 400 degrees ?

it depends on the pieces of chicken you are using.

if you are using chicken breast, you want to cook them fast so they dont dry out. if you want to add flavor to them, marinate them in advance.

dark meat can be cook considerable slower but still will dry out. again flavor injection works great on them

It is not that they would or would not benefit, it is a matter of what dish you use them in. There are slow cooker chicken recipes and skillet chicken recipes and grill and oven LOL. Some fast, some cook slow.
My expience is that dark meat is the best in the slow cooker for my tastes, and the white meat for casseroles, skillet, and oven cooking. Oh and dark meat on the grill!
