I watched Ina make this on her show the other day and decided to try it. It really comes out very good. I used drumsticks and thighs and marinated in the buttermilk all day. The chicken stays crisp and crunchy in the oven. A very easy way to make fried chicken. Thanks for posting a keeper!

I am a mother of two wonderful boys! We live in a small rural community in Indiana that we love. I love cooking, especially entertaining for family and friends. I collect cookbooks and found RecipeZaar by accident online looking for recipes. I was hooked immediately! I tell all of my family and friends about this awesome site. I cannot understand picky eaters or those who won't try something new??? My husband and I enjoy cooking together and trying new recipes.
