I'm not a huge fan of brining chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was so juicy and tender, I couldn't believe it.

This brine is a great way to add flavor and moisture to chicken. I especially like to use it for grilled or roasted chicken.

This chicken brine is a game-changer! The chicken came out incredibly juicy and flavorful. I'll never cook chicken without brining it first.
