Dill Pickle Brined Chicken is "dillicious"! Sorry, I had to say that! Pickle juice tenderizes the chicken and intensifies the the flavor.
- Prep: 2 hrs
- Cook: 30 mins
- Yields: 4 Servings
Directions
1Place the chicken in a shallow dish or container and pour the brine over the top. If necessary, rearrange the chicken so each piece is completely submerged. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 8 hours.
2Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 425°F.
3Drain the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Liberally season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the chicken thighs in a single layer in an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish.
4Roast until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 20 minutes. Cover with aluminum foil, and let the chicken rest for 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped pickles and fresh dill, and serve warm.
