Loved it! I used about 1/4 pound of chicken filets with this, and they were tender and full of great flavor. This ingredients list works very well together. I could have added more chicken for the amount, but not much!

I found this recipe in an old Canadian Living magazine years ago. I loved anything do to with buttermilk and chicken is no exception! Wonderful marinade

I too like Boomette made my own buttermilk. The chicken was lovely & tender with a great lemon tang & a little fire from the pepper. Really nice marinade, thanks Calee!

I used 3/4 cup of milk plus 3/4 tablespoon of vinegar and let sit 5 minutes to have buttermilk. I used just a little bit of black pepper and no salt. I used chicken legs with bone-in and let marinate overnight. This was very good. A great taste. I will try that eventually with chicken breasts in cubes like you said. Thanks Calee. Made for Zaar Star Game.

This was really good. I also thought the mustard would be too much, but it wasn't and everything tasted great. I added mushrooms, onions and green bell peppers along with the chicken and let it all sit for 3 hours, then skewered and grilled. Made great kabobs. Thanks for posting! I think it would also be good for grilled pork chops.
