    Spiced Baked Buttermilk Chicken - This buttermilk chicken recipe is super juicy and tender.

    This easy Spice Baked Buttermilk Chicken recipe is marinated in a simple buttermilk mixture and then smothered in a quick yoghurt marinade before being roasted in the oven. Allowing the chicken to marinate for 24 - 48 hours produces an unbelievable flavor throughout the chicken, and creates chicken that’s extremely moist and tender.

    The most important thing you have to do to make this buttermilk roasted chicken work is planning ahead and marinating it for 1 - 2 days. That gives the marinade enough time to really penetrate the chicken leg and thigh meat and also tenderises it. 

    This recipe works best with bone in chicken thighs and legs as those are the most flavourful parts of the chicken.
