Adults and kids love this Italian Buttermilk Chicken ! So delicious when served with either fries and salad or vegetables and mashed potatoes
This is the perfect Chicken for a busy week night. The Italian Buttermilk Chicken is finger-licking awesome and kids just love it.
We like fish and chips (as we call it in SA!), and this is a delicious alternative. These Chicken Fingers, with chips and a salad or two and we are set.
The Chicken goes just as well with mashed potatoes and vegetables if you’d rather have it that way.
And the Paprika not only gives the Chicken a delicious taste. It also gives the Chicken Fingers a lovely rich, dark color, unlike some batter covered fried chicken or fish.
Speaking of fish – this recipe is great to use with firm white fish fingers, or even larger pieces !
You can serve the Chicken with chips (fries) and a salad or mashed potatoes, corn and a crunchy salad.

Yum... that looks delicious. I love the idea of adding the paprika for a touch of spice and color. I want to come and eat at your house:)

Mm fish and chips but I think your chicken is better. However Samuel has a part time job at a chicken place so I haven't cooked fried chicken in a long time, I bet yours is better.
