Buttermilk baked chicken is a classic Southern dish that is both flavorful and tender. The chicken is marinated in buttermilk for several hours or overnight, which helps to tenderize the meat and give it a slightly tangy flavor. After marinating, the chicken is coated in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper, and then baked in the oven until golden brown and cooked through. Buttermilk baked chicken can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or coleslaw.

KONA K'S HEALTHY OVEN-BAKED BUTTERMILK CHICKEN TENDERLOINS



Kona K's Healthy Oven-Baked Buttermilk Chicken Tenderloins image

A great recipe to try when you're in the mood for fried chicken, but can't afford all the calories and fat. If you're out of buttermilk, you can just substitute 1/4 C milk + 1 TSP vinegar. I like to spice this up by adding lots of hot sauce. If time allows, I would recommend soaking the chicken tenderloins in the buttermilk, garlic powder and hot sauce mixture in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. This will make the chicken much more flavorful. (Picture: served with Kona K's Oven-Roasted Baby Potatoes Recipe #368944)

BUTTERMILK BAKED CHICKEN



BUTTERMILK BAKED CHICKEN image

Categories     Chicken     Bake

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups buttermilk
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1/2 yellow onion, sliced
5 sprigs fresh thyme
3 cloves garlic, smashed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (3 pound) chicken cut into 8 pieces, rinsed and patted dry
2 cups crushed corn flakes
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Fit a sheet tray with a wire rack and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Mix together buttermilk, lemon juice, hot sauce, onion, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper to a large bowl. Add chicken and coat with mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 3 hours or up 12 hours. Mix corn flakes, Parmesan cheese, and thyme together. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best.
  • Use fresh buttermilk: Fresh buttermilk will give your chicken the best flavor. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes: This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the buttermilk and seasonings.
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C): This will ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.
  • Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until it is cooked through: The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and juicy.

Conclusion:

Buttermilk baked chicken is a classic Southern dish that is easy to make and always a hit. With its crispy skin, juicy meat, and flavorful buttermilk marinade, this chicken is sure to be a hit at your next meal. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or a salad.
