Apple Chicken Brine

Description Meta Nutrition

Servings:

I originally made this apple juice brine recipe for chicken to pair with a gifted bottle of apple wine. It was quite possibly the best chicken I have ever roasted. I love cooking the chicken in a cast-iron roasting pan, sitting on a bed of chopped apple, onion, and garlic. Place thawed whole chicken in chilled brine and refrigerate for 18 to 24 hours — roast chicken as usual.
