I took out some chicken for dinner this morning, with no idea of what I was going to do with it. I just knew that my sweetie likes a meal for Sunday dinner so, I had no choice but to come up with something simple but tasty. I decided to throw a quick brine together for the chicken. I'm no brine expert, but I do know I need salt and whatever else I could find to add flavor...
After about 2 hours in the brine, I drained the chicken and got it ready for the grill which was already heated up with some Wicked Good Weekend Warrior...
I put some hickory chunks on the coals, and cooked the chicken directly over the coals, to infuse lots of smokey flavor into it...
The chicken had beautiful color and the smell was fantastic...
Now for the quick and simple trick. I drizzled some hidden valley ranch, and some sriracha hot sauce on top of the chicken, and plated with some of the wild rice I had left over from Saturday. My wife loved it, and I fulfilled my Sunday dinner requirement she has for me...
If this were a "OMG, I need to cook something really fast" throw down, this would be my money shot! :-D
