Chicken Wings with Cucumber Brine

Description

A brilliant invention. Usually, a jar of brine sits somewhere in the back of the fridge, waiting for its moment. Here, the brine played one of its main roles — it is well-known that it positively affects the product that is about to be fried. The chicken, after meeting this brine, turns out to be incredibly tender, and most importantly, it doesn’t even need additional salt. We were lucky to use bread-and-butter pickle brine for this recipe, and that sweet-and-sour flavor undoubtedly elevated the dish after just a couple of hours. Also, bourbon is needed here, which adds an interesting zest, making the flavor of the wings complex and richer than one might imagine. And again, there's nothing stopping anyone from enjoying a glass of pure, unadulterated bourbon during dinner.
