The Ingredients
- 5 lbs. whole chicken (or your favorite poultry)
- 1-quart cold water divided
- ¼ cup kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons honey, maple syrup, or sugar
- 2 small bay leaves
- 5 cloves of garlic, smashed
- 2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
- 1 large fresh rosemary sprigs
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
The Recipe
1. Take 1 cup from the quart of cold water and combine with everything else.
2. Place mixture in a pot and bring to a boil, allow the salt and sweetener to dissolve fully.
3. Remove from heat and combine in a large container with the remaining cold water.
4. Give a good stir and add the poultry to the brine when it has cooled down. Make sure the poultry can be fully submerged; you can use a plate to weigh down the poultry.
5. Allow to brine overnight or up to 18 hours.
6. Remove from brine and give the poultry a light rinse to remove particles from the ingredients.
7. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes or until fully cooked. Rotate halfway through cooking process for even browning.
