Directions
- To brine the chicken, put 1 quart water and 1/4 cup salt (with molasses or brown sugar,
if using) in a bowl or zip-top bag. Stir to dissolve and add chicken pieces. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
When ready to cook, preheat grill to high. Make herb mixture: whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, and chopped herbs. Remove chicken from brine and pat dry. Salt and pepper both sides.
Oil grill grates and brush chicken with herb mixture. Grill first side about 5 minutes. Brush top (ungrilled) side with herb mixture, turn the chicken and brush top (grilled) side with herb mixture. Cook until meat is opaque and no pink shows when you cut into the thickest part, another 4-6 minutes, depending on thickness. Brush both sides again and turn, about 30 seconds per side.
Serve immediately.
