A delicious recipe that I used for the Awkward Hour cooking special last Saturday. Delicious!

  • 5 lbs chicken breasts with bones and skin
  • 1 c flour
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • 1 c buttermilk
  • dash hot sauce
  • 4 c cornflakes, crushed
  • salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spread salt and pepper over the chicken and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. You can use this time to prepare other food or conversely feed the cat, put gel in your hair, etc.

If your cat is properly fed then add some more salt and pepper to the buttermilk in a large bowl. Chop the rosemary. Fresh rosemary is the best, but at $3.00 for a little pack you either need to grow your own, you can even use that hydroponics set up from your failed weed-growing venture, or get dried. Dried works as long as it’s fresh. So, add the rosemary and hot sauce to the buttermilk and put the chicken in there and let it soak 20-30 minutes.

Feed the cat again or maybe reorganize your stamp collection.

Okay. This part requires three semi-large bowls. If you don’t have bowls Tupperware works. If you don’t have Tupperware, consult your nearest Tupperware party.

Drain the buttermilk into a bowl. Put the flour and cornflakes in bowls as well. Coat the chicken in the flour, then the buttermilk and finally roll it in the cornflakes.

FInally place your chicken on baking sheets and bake for about 45 minutes or until there is no pink left. It’s really good! Try it!
