(serves 4)
2 cups Buttermilk
Juice from ½ lemon
1 Tbsp. Hot Sauce
½ Yellow onion, sliced
5 sprigs of fresh Thyme
3 cloves garlic, crushed
Salt & Pepper
4 skinless, boneless Chicken breasts, 6 oz each
2 cups Corn flake crumbs
¾ cup Parmesan Cheese
Mix together in a large bowl all ingredients except chicken, corn flakes and Parmesan cheese. Add chicken and coat with mixture. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours, or up to 12 hours. Place Corn flake crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a small baking pan and dredge each chicken piece, pressing to help adhere. Place on wire rack over baking sheet and bake in a 400 degree preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Cooks note: Soaking chicken in buttermilk leaves the chicken incredibly moist with a delicious flavor.
