Hope the wait is not too long, as the picture looks gorgeous. The world also needs more hyphenated food, I think.

^ Funny!

Love what I see, cant wait to bite into it!

Amanda, Sorry, but I couldn't publish your response to Angie.

While I pretty much agree with everything you said, a couple of things went over the line regarding the civil tone I like to maintain here.

BUT, thanks for defending me!!

Not a fan of the cut of boneless skinless chicken breast. Tried the stove top sous vide technique on it and it still came out over cooked- well either that or its just an inherently pretty dry bit of bird. :(

Oh, I sooo love fried chicken. But does it have to be low fat? Well, I will just have to see whether it tastes as good as the fatty equivalent... :-)

Hey Chef John, OMG this dish looks so good. I wanted to know if I can use this brine for a small whole chicken? Can I leave it for one hour? Can I add other seasoning after the brine is done like onion powder etc. Thanks for making a great video. Any tips would be helpful. Thanks again Rachel

That crust looks amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Chef John said...

Yes, you can use for a whole chicken, but not sure exactly how long is optimal, have not do it. You better google an expert source like serious eats. Good luck!
