Preparation

Step 1

Gather these tools: cutting board; chef's knife; wet and dry measuring cups; measuring spoons; pastry brush; resealable plastic bag; shallow baking dish; sheet pan

Combine chicken and buttermilk in a resealable plastic bag and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.

Preheat oven to 400oF degrees. Brush a sheet pan with vegetable oil and set aside.

In a shallow baking dish, mix the cornmeal, salt, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Shake well to combine. Remove one piece of chicken from the buttermilk and shake off any excess liquid. Put the chicken in the dish one piece at a time and shake well to coat. Place the coated chicken pieces on the oil sheet pan as you work.

Brush the chicken with the remaining oil, and bake for 20 minutes. Serve Immediately
