"Marinating in buttermilk for 24 hours is the tender, flavorable secret. I drained then shook a couple pieces at a time in 1 cup Bisquick, added 1/2 Tbsp Paprika, 2 t salt and 1/2 t pepper.

"I had difficulty getting some ingredients here in UK especially dry Italian seasoning but made up something with a few herbs and spices. I liked the result. Marinading in butter milk is a really go..." See moreod idea. (For UK readers, butter milk can be found at Tesco). I cooked the chicken in an oven, 200C, since I don't use deep frying. I sprayed the dish with olive oil, put the chicken in then sprayed it as well. Next time I'll adapt the coating by using bread crumbs and perhaps substitute the Italian seasoning with some lemon zest, or another strong flavoured fruit, some crushed bay leaves, and some basil, ground pepper, perhaps some lemon grass. My wife suggests putting the chicken seasoning into the marinade instead of the salt."
