Olive brined grilled chicken breasts for caesar salad

[zwiller]

A thank to you folks here using pickle brine for the inspiration! Instead of using pickles, I used leftover olive liquid/brine to marinate with a splash of olive oil.

Easily the best caesar I ever made and had and is in competition with the best grilled meat salad I ever had which was the beef tenderloin at Brio.

Especially if you're AC is out and trying to fix it LOL

The olive flavor is mild but there and totally works with the caesar dressing. I had enough brine from a small jar of olives to do 3 breasts. Guess like 3/4C brine.

Sam I'll bet that's dang good as I love olives. I also love a good Caesar so overall winner in my book.

Local place here (Vita) does this with olives in it so I had a good idea it would work. I have worked my through ALOT of olives but have settled on these as my current fave. I limit myself to 2 a day LOL

But did you brine in pickle or olive juice?

Olive juice. I edited my post for more clarity. Conveying my thoughts in writing is NOT my strong suit LOL
