Should I rinse off the chicken after brining?

After brining, do you rinse your chicken off or just go straight to cooking? I'm wondering if rinsing affects the taste or moisture. Would love to hear your methods and reasons!

After brining your chicken, no need to rinse unless overly salty. Pat dry before cooking for crispy, flavorful, juicy results! Enjoy!

After brining your chicken, it's best not to rinse it off. Rinsing can wash away some of the flavorful brine and moisture you've worked to infuse. Just pat it dry with paper towels before cooking to get a crispy exterior and juicy meat.
