Steps:
- Combine buttermilk, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add chicken pieces and marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking pan with foil and place in the oven.
- Combine cornstarch, panko, smoked paprika, Greek seasoning, onion powder, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper in a large resealable bag.
- Remove chicken legs from buttermilk, drain, and dip legs one at a time into the dry coating mixture.
- Remove pan from the oven with pot holders and add 1 tablespoon melted butter to the pan. With a pastry brush, spread melted butter all over the pan.
- Lay coated chicken legs into the pan. Pour half of the melted butter over chicken legs.
- Roast in the preheated until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 40 minutes, turning over at the halfway point. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drizzle with remaining melted butter and serve immediately.
