I brined the chicken breast in water, salt, & brown sugar fir a couple hours.
Then, I dried it off, added Italian dressing, let it sit for a half-hour and grilled them.
Made a sauce with sautéed mushrooms (deglazed with Gran Marnier) garlic & cream, with a tbsp of butter.
Made a box wild rice for the starch.
And, boiled Brussel sprouts in salted water with the juice of a lemon to keep them bright green.
Chicken stayed very moist, which is good due to the risk of drying out chicken breast on a grill.
