Categories     Chicken

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 chicken leg quarters, separated into drumsticks and thighs, skin removed (5 to 6 pounds)
3 cups buttermilk
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Extra vegetable oil (for the rack)
2 cups (8 ounces) panko crumbs
2 cups fine, dry bread crumbs
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
11/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. In a bowl, combine chicken, buttermilk, salt, and black pepper. Make sure the chicken is coated all over with the buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or for up to a day. 2. Set the oven at 400 degrees. Set a large wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet. Brush it with oil. 3. In a gallon-size zipper bag, combine the panko, dry bread crumbs, paprika, mustard powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Shake well. Add the 1/4 cup oil and melted butter and mix together with your fingers. 4. Working with 1 piece of chicken at a time, use tongs to lift the chicken from the bowl, letting the excess buttermilk drip back into the bowl. Place the chicken piece in the bag of crumbs and turn to coat it on all sides, shaking off the excess. Transfer to the wire rack. Continue coating the remaining pieces of chicken. 5. Bake the chicken for 40 minutes, or until the coating is deep, golden brown, and the juices run clear when a knife is inserted into the thickest part of a thigh. Set aside 4 thighs for the sandwiches. Serve the remaining chicken with coleslaw.

This chicken is amazing! I marinated it for 24 hours and it was so tender and juicy. The buttermilk marinade really made a difference.

Easy to make and delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs and they turned out perfectly. I served it with honey mustard sauce and everyone loved it.

This chicken is finger-licking good! The buttermilk marinade gives it a wonderful tang, and the oven-frying method makes it crispy without being greasy. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was a hit with the whole family.
