TOTAL TIME

Combine water and kosher salt in a large bowl. Stir until the salt is completely dissolved.

CHICKEN

Immerse the chicken breast in the salt water solution, ensuring that all pieces are fully submerged. Allow the chicken to brine in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

SPICE RUB

In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt and dried thyme.

CHICKEN

Preheat the oven to 375F. Remove the chicken from the brine, rinse, and pat dry. Place the chicken breasts on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

Evenly rub the oil and spice mixture on both sides of the chicken breasts.

Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, depending on thickness. Ensure that the thickest part of the breast reaches an internal temperature of 165F.

After taking the chicken out of the oven, let it rest for about 10 minutes to retain its juices. Then, slice it thin for serving.

GARNISH

Garnish with a few fresh thyme sprigs before serving.
