Buttermilk Baked Chicken

[fersakyn]

Yesterday, I caught the tail-end of Everyday Food on PBS. It inspired me to check out their website for recipes, and I found this:




So, while I didn't have any fresh chicken to use, I decided to defrost some frozen chicken I had stashed away in the freezer. However, I saw the show around 6pm, and there was no way the chicken would be defrosted in time for me to make it and eat it for dinner. Thus, it became a midnight snack.

It turned out all golden brown, just like the picture. However, the chicken's a little dry. I think that my modification to the recipe will be to leave the chicken to soak in the buttermilk mixture for a couple of hours, perhaps even overnight, before baking it.

Otherwise, Good Eats! (Another cooking show that I enjoy, but can't watch very often since it's on the Food Network, and I don't have cable TV.)

Hi sweetie, you're making me crave Kentucky fried chicken right now looking at the pic. Defrosted chicken is always drier as the liquids drain out of the meat. Also if you used breasts they are much drier than dark meat. Haven't been doing much cooking on this end. Too brain dead!
