- 1 1/2 cups pickle juice (leftover liquid from pickle jar)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- Old Bay seasoning
Instructions

Place the chicken in a gallon size plastic bag. Add the pickle juice and brown sugar. Massage the bag until the brown sugar is dissolved. Place in a large bowl (in case of a leak) and into the fridge for 24 hours.

Remove the chicken from the bag, discard the bag and brine. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle both sides lightly with Old Bay seasoning.

Preheat your grill or Blackstone griddle to medium/medium high heat. Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness of the chicken. If using your griddle add some cooking oil first.
