Brining overnight in a salt-and-cider mixture makes this chicken incredibly flavorful and moist; basting with reduced apple cider adds a hint of sweetness to the finished chicken. Use tongs to carefully remove skin from the hot chicken.

¼ cup kosher salt
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1 (6-pound) roasting chicken
2 cups apple cider
