Kroger has $1/lb bone-in skin on chicken breast halves this week. So this was a cheap and good meal!
3/4 c kosher salt (or 6T table salt)
3/4 c sugar
3-4 bone-in skin on chicken breasts (mine =3 1/2 lbs for 3)
SPICE RUB:
2T cumin
2T curry
2T chili powder
1T allspice
1T ground black pepper
1t cinnamon
In a gallon size zip lock bag, dissolve salt and sugar in 1 qt water. Add chicken, then seal bag. Press out as much air as possible. Refridgerate an hour to 1 1/2 hrs. Remove from brine and rinse well and pat dry with paper towels.
Mix spice rub and rub all over chicken. Oil grill. Grill skin side down, 2-3 min on each side to get a nice well-browned exterior. Move chicken over to one side and turn off that side of the burners (in direct heat) and cover with foil. Shut grill and grill skin side up about 10 min. Turn over and cook 5 min more. Cook until 160 degrees. Slice off of bone and serve.
