Brining chicken makes the flavour far better and it will cook faster too

Preparation

  1. Put 500ml water into a pan and bring to a simmer
  2. Dissolve the salt and honey and stir in the other ingredients
  3. Turn off the heat and cool
  4. Add another 1-1.5L of cold water (or a mix of ice and water)
  5. If you are planning to spatchcock the chicken do it at this stage. Freeze the removed parts so you can use them later to make a stock
  6. Immerse the chicken in the brine - add extra water if needed to cover the chicken
  7. Refrigerate for 24 hours
