Description

This moist buttermilk roast chicken is flavored with garlic potato flakes and Parmesan cheese--each bite delivers a hint of Southern cooking.

Ingredients

1 cup buttermilk
1 (7 3/5 ounce) package dry garlic potato flakes
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
5 (6 ounce) pieces of chicken, skin removed

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet or a 9x13-inch baking pan, or line with aluminum foil.
2 Pour buttermilk into a shallow bowl. Combine potato flakes and Parmesan cheese in a large resealable plastic bag; shake until well mixed. Dip 1 piece of chicken in the buttermilk, then place in the plastic bag. Seal the bag and shake until chicken is coated in the potato flake mixture. Place chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining chicken.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is tender and golden brown, 45 to 60 minutes.
