BUTTERMILK-FRIED CHICKEN
Traditional southern fried chicken is simply coated in seasoned flour and fried, but marinating the chicken in buttermilk first tenderises the meat and gives it a lovely tangy flavour. I don’t know what the colonel puts in his secret blend of herbs and spices. I use smoked paprika, garlic and cayenne pepper, and I’ll tell you, it knocks the socks off his version. This is lovely with my Quick Sweet Pickled Celery.
