How should i season my chicken?

It depends on what kind of flavor profile you're going for! Here are some ideas for seasoning chicken:

Classic & Simple:

* Salt & Pepper: The most basic and essential seasonings. Use freshly ground black pepper for best results.

* Garlic Powder & Onion Powder: Adds savory depth and flavor.

* Paprika: Adds a touch of sweetness and a vibrant color.

Mediterranean:

* Lemon Pepper: Bright and tangy with a citrus kick.

* Dried Oregano & Thyme: Classic Mediterranean herbs.

* Sumac: Adds a tangy and slightly lemony flavor.

Asian Inspired:

* Ginger & Garlic: Aromatic and pungent.

* Soy Sauce & Sesame Oil: Umami and nutty flavor.

* Chili Flakes: Adds a touch of heat.

Spicy:

* Cayenne Pepper: Gives a kick of heat.

* Chili Powder: Adds a blend of spices, including chili peppers, cumin, and oregano.

* Hot Sauce: A great way to add heat to finished chicken.

Other Tips:

* Use fresh herbs whenever possible. They have a more vibrant flavor than dried herbs.

* Don't be afraid to experiment! There are endless combinations of spices you can use to season chicken.

* Season generously. Don't be afraid to use a lot of spices.

* Let the chicken rest for at least 30 minutes after seasoning. This allows the flavors to meld and penetrate the chicken.

* Season both sides of the chicken. Make sure the seasoning gets into all the crevices.

Bonus:

* Dry Brining: Rubbing chicken with salt and letting it sit in the refrigerator for a few hours helps to retain moisture and flavor.
