The chicken is flavorful, moist, and tender.
The salty flavor pairs perfectly with the dill pickles.
The secret to getting juicy and perfectly seasoned meat even in the center is brining the chicken.
It may take a few hours, but it is totally worth it.
Do not skip that part, or your chicken will turn out dry and not as good.
Aside from the brine, you should also pay attention to the breading to get the perfect result.
Watch the video below for the in-depth recipe tutorial.
