I have not tried this yet but plan on doing it this week. I was watching Home and Family which was filmed live at Dollywood last week. Dolly gave the recipe for her fried chicken sandwiches sold at the park. Of course I won't be frying the chicken breast but grilling it. The chicken is marinated in PICKLE JUICE for 4 - 6 hours (she stressed no more than 6 hours!). Then, to do the frying, the drained chicken pieces are dredged in several coatings (combinations of egg and pickle juice, then a combination of flour and powdered sugar -- ratio of 10-1). I will be trying just the marinating process with the pickle juice. I always keep leftover pickle juices to be used over salads or in making vinaigrettes. AT the moment I have bread and butter pickle juice available in the fridge.
Just noticed that quiltbuddy mentioned using pickle juice as a marinade.
