Step by Step Method

Step 1

Place all the ingredients in a large re-sealable plastic bag and swish until everything is well mixed.

Step 2

Seal the bag taking out as much of the air as you can and refrigerate for 16 to 24 hours.

Step 3

Remove the chicken from the brine and discard brine.

Step 4

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and add the chicken pieces; roast in a preheated 350 degree oven until cooked through and there is no pink in the center. This will vary from one oven to another and depending on the thickness of the chicken pieces. I cooked mine for 1 hour.
