Is 2 hours enough time to brine chicken?

[TastyTreasures]

Is a 2-hour brine enough for chicken, or am I cutting it too short? If anyone has experience with quick brines, I’d really like to know how your dishes turned out. Thanks for sharing!

A 2-hour brine can work for chicken, especially if you're short on time! While longer brining can give deeper flavor and more tenderness, a quick brine still adds some moisture and taste. I've tried it before, and the chicken turned out juicy and flavorful, though not as intensely seasoned as with a longer brine. Give it a shot and see how you like it!

Yes, 2 hours is usually enough time to brine chicken for enhanced flavor and moisture, especially for smaller cuts!

I've tried brining chicken for as little as 30 minutes n it still came out super juicy!
