100% would make again

This tops the list of family requests for dinner. The chicken is moist, flavorful and nicely browned. I alternate using bone-in chicken breasts or skinned and boned breasts.

When I sent this recipe in I stated to bake this in garlic oil and use fresh buttermilk -- if you do I promise it makes ALL the difference! Thank you TOH for putting this in your books, Linda.

Not much of a cook but it worked well! Alot less work than actual fried chicken and very tasty. I also tried the powder buttermilk but I think next time I will use the liquid, less messy and I will find actual creole seasoning just for curiousity sake. Thanks for sharing! SAO

I made this recipe for dinner tonight & it was delicious! The creole seasoning is suttle and there was enough sauce to serve over rice.

I assume a gluten issue. Try corn flour, with maybe a little corn meal. This recipe has very definite "Southern" roots, so the corn may be a little more appropriate. Coconut flour may make it too sweet. Just my 4 cents worth (adjusted for inflation).

I do not use white flour. Is there another coating I could use instead that is not made with flour? Would coconut flour work?
