Equipment

Directions

  1. Place chicken breasts and buttermilk into a large resealable plastic bag, knead several times to coat chicken with buttermilk, and squeeze air from the bag. Seal and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  3. Placed crushed herb-seasoned stuffing mix into a shallow bowl.
  4. Mix flour, salt, and black pepper in a separate flat dish. Beat egg with water in a bowl.
  5. Pour peanut oil into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan.
