Chicken & Biscuits
Method
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, marinate the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes. This will help tenderize the chicken and add flavor.

Make the Biscuit Dough
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, and paprika. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

Fry the Chicken
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from buttermilk, letting excess drip off. Dredge in a mixture of flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Fry the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Bake the Biscuits

Prepare Breakfast Potatoes
Dice potatoes and toss them with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes until crispy.
