Roasted Brined Chicken
I looked at several recipes for brining and roasting a chicken. i did not find one that i liked but did like several parts of different recipes so i made up my own. i had never brines before and wow what a difference. my dh was shocked as was i at how moist the chicken was.
Steps
Mix all ingredients for brine in a container and place whole washed bird in liquid make sure it is completely immersed.
Refrigerate over night.
Next morning take bird out of brine , rinse and pat dry.
Add seasoning to skin of bird and place back in fridge until ready to roast.
I roasted my chicken for 60 minutes at 400 degrees.
