Danged if I jes didn't happen to have chicken salad last night.

One large BRINED Cajun chicken breast, iceberg lettuce, grape
tomatoes, fresh white onion slivers, Girard's Champagne French
dressing, w/ fresh ground pepper and fresh grated parmesan. Yum!

The chicken was brined a bit too long, so was TOO tender. Who knew!?
All these yrs I poohed-poohed brining, and now I'm a *cough* firm
*cough* believer. Danged if I ain't gonna hafta read that insanely
long page on why brining works.

I also love Creole/Cajun flavor, so Charchere's rub on the chkn made
the meal.

enjoy =D
