You brine a chicken by soaking in salt and spices. Often the spices used include bay, rosemary, oregano and others. The solution that you soak it in is very salty.

Basically a brine is like a marinade. However unlike a marinade it mainly consists of water and salt. It's purpose is to add flavor to the chicken as well as keep it moist while it cooks. Look online for different brine to locate one that sounds like something you would like.
