How long can dry rub stay on chicken?

You can leave a chicken rub on the chicken for up to 12 hours. It will start affecting the meat after only 30 minutes. But, the longer you leave it, the better the flavor and texture of the dry rub chicken will be.

How do you get dry rub to stick to chicken?

There are two crucial steps to make easy seasoned chicken with a rub. The first is patting it dry so that there is no moisture (water) on the surface of the meat. The second is to coat the meat with a thin layer of olive oil. It will make the spices stick, give the chicken a beautiful golden color, and make the skin crispy.

Do you oil chicken before dry rub?

Yes, we do. Oil helps the rub stick on the chicken better.
