BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN

subheading: BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN:

In this lighter, simpler version of fried chicken, chicken drumsticks and thighs are marinated in spicy seasoned buttermilk before being tossed in a flavorful coating. A spritz of cooking spray is all it takes to deliver a crispy, crunchy “fried” texture.

If you prefer, you can use 2 bone-in chicken breasts (totaling no more than 1 lb/500 g) in place of the thighs and drumsticks.

You can use all drumsticks or all thighs in place of a combination.

2 chicken drumsticks (about 8 oz/2 to 250 g total), patted dry

2 small chicken thighs (about 8 oz/2 to 250 g total), patted dry

2⁄3 cup buttermilk 150 mL

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1⁄8 tsp cayenne pepper 0.5 mL

2⁄3 cup all-purpose flour 150 mL

1 tsp garlic powder 5 mL

1 tsp paprika 5 mL

1 tsp baking powder 5 mL

Nonstick cooking spray
