Why You Should Brine Chicken in Olive Juice | Big Little Recipes | Food52

You might think that salt water is the simplest wet brine, but Emma has one that's even easier: olive brine. It seasons the chicken throughout, helps the cooked meat retain moisture, and adds a deep savoriness. Throw in some garlicky croutons and a bouquet’s worth of parsley and you have a one-skillet dinner—or Thanksgiving for two. GET THE RECIPE ►► https://f52.co/3l17LTV
