But because they’re so lean they often dry out, becoming rubbery and tough. A simple salt-sugar brine is the perfect solution. Salt tenderizes the meat by breaking down tough proteins, and sugar adds flavor and helps the meat brown, guaranteeing a juicy, tender chicken breast that can pair with just about anything. Level Beginner Prep Time 1.5 hours Cook Time 18-20 minutes Serves 4 Cook it With Our Square Cast Iron Grill Pan Ingredients 4 cups water 2 tablespoons salt ¼ cup sugar 4 chicken breasts 2 tablespoons olive oil ½ teaspoon black pepper ½ teaspoon dried garlic 2 ice cubes Directions Dissolve salt and sugar in the water and soak chicken for 30-60 minutes. (Careful not to soak too long, which can make the meat taste too salty!) Preheat a Square Cast Iron Grill Pan on medium-high for 5 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Drain chicken, pat dry, and rub with olive oil, garlic, and pepper. Sear chicken for 2 minutes on each side. Add ice cubes to the pan and move to the oven. Cook for 18-20 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove from heat and allow to rest 5 minutes before cutting.
