Buttermilk Baked Chicken
Jul. 22nd, 2007 12:39 pmYesterday, 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.)
