Everything is important in recipes when you cook them. Somethings do shine a bit more than others here is the Roots shining out. The chicken is like adding flavor more than the star.

About my recipes I live in Florida and it is hot all year long so my salt usage is a bit higher than most. A good rule to remember is salt your cooking less, because you can always add more if you need it.
