  • 1/4 cup olive oil 
  • 1/4 tsp. liquid smoke 
  • 1/4 tsp. soy sauce

Rub Dry Seasoning 

  • 2 tsp. all purpose flour 
  • 1/4 tsp. salt 
  • 1 Chicken bouillon cube, crushed 
  • 1/4 tsp. coarse grind black pepper 
  • 1/4 tsp. crushed dried rosemary 
  • 1/4 tsp. dried basil 
  • 1/8 tsp. dried oregano 
  • 1/8 tsp. garlic powder

Lets Get Cracking


  1. Combine all the ingredients for the seasoning in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. Dissolve the salt in the water to make brine. Add the chicken, cover and chill for 2 hours. When the chicken has marinated, rinse each piece of the chicken with water and blot dry.
  3. Whisk together the oil, liquid smoke, and soy sauce in a small bowl. Brush oil over one side of each piece of chicken. 
  4. Sprinkle the dry rub over the oiled side of each piece of chicken, then flip each piece, brush with oil again and sprinkle on more dry seasoning. 
  5. Grill on gas grill. Turn half your grill on high, the other on low, cook over low side turning every 5-10 minutes for approx 20 minutes or till done.
    OR
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (or 325 if you have a convection oven). Brush some of the leftover oil solution onto an oven safe grill pan or grill plate. Set the pan over medium heat, and when oil begins to smoke, place chicken skin side down on the pan. Cook the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes or until the skin begins to brown and grill marks form on the chicken, then flip the chicken and cook it for another 1 to 2 minutes. Pop the grill pan into the oven for 20 minutes, then flip each piece of the chicken and bake for another 20 minutes or until the surface of the chicken is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
Enjoy :) :) :)
