Buttermilk Chicken Fried Chicken
Most of us try different ways of eating chicken breasts. It can get old really quick, eating chicken breasts baked, grilled or fried. Sometimes I change it up by making buttermilk chicken fried chicken. Buttermilk chicken fried chicken is a treat for the family since we try not to fry to many foods. But when I do make it, it does not last long.
The key to keeping the chicken moist is marinating it in buttermilk for a few hours before cooking. I usually prep the chicken by rinsing it and then covering the chicken in the buttermilk. I then put it in the fridge until I am ready to cook it. The end result is moist buttermilk chicken fried chicken.
