I was browsing Curtis Stone recipes and saw this fried chix , and I was drooling over it. How can I be always cooking my hubby & kids fav, so I decided to fried the Chix when I am serving the Fish & Chips.
I am always dying for fried chix, my crazy crave each time. Simply love to eat the crispy skin, tender meat so I am always trying different recipes. This recipe seems easy to follow, easy to prepare. I am also interested to know how it will taste after soaking in buttermilk then coating it to fried.
Verdict: The chix meat is especially soft and tender after soaking in the buttermilk, I presume. Outer skin, it is crispy after deep fried but will soften a bit after cooling down, but won't turn soggy. Not bad in my views.

Hi Priscilla,
ReplyDeleteI have tried using buttermilk to marinate chicken before. We like it but my husband hate it :p I guess different people have different option in food :D

ReplyDeleteHi Priscilla, thanks for joining us in this bloghop. I love fried chicken too, and I wish I could cook this at home but I got phobia of deep frying at home. I can just drool at your photos ;)
