4 cups cold water
3 tbsp fine sea salt
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
4 cloves garlic, smashed
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 tsp ground ginger

For the chicken

1 whole chicken (3.5–4.5 lb), giblets removed
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp fine sea salt
1 tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp dried oregano
Ingredient note
Herbs and spices can carry nickel, so a low nickel diet limits them, but the small amount of oregano used to season this recipe is likely fine. If you prefer to always avoid oregano, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 small onion, halved
4 cloves garlic, smashed
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 lemon, halved (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the bone broth, cold water, sea salt, apple cider vinegar, smashed garlic, thyme sprigs, rosemary sprigs, and ground ginger in a large stockpot or container, stirring until the salt fully dissolves.
2
Submerge the whole chicken in the brine, breast-side down. If needed, weigh it down with a plate to keep it fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to 16 hours.
