Provided by carvalhohm

Number Of Ingredients 8

3-4 lbs cut-up fryer
1 (1oz.) envelope ranch salad dressing and seasoning mix
2 cups buttermilk
1 (8.5 oz) box corn muffin mix
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp cayenne

Steps:

  • Combine chicken, ranch seasoning, and buttermilk in a large ziploc bag. Turn the bag over several times to ensure the chicken is coated with the ranch and buttermilk and place in the refrigerator. Refrigerate for the entire day or at least one hour. Preheat the oven to 425F. Spay a large baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside. Combine corn muffin mix and seasonings in a shallow bowl. Remove the chicken pieces one at a time an shake off the excess buttermilk. Dip the chicken in the breading, turning to evenly coat. Shake off excess and place chicken, bone side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat for remaining chicken pieces. Lightly spray the top of each piece of chicken with cooking spray. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. Check the chicken at about 30 minutes and if the coating is turning too brown, just place a piece of foil lightly over the top of the chicken to prevent further browning.

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy coating, ensure the chicken is thoroughly coated in the buttermilk mixture and then in the seasoned flour.
  • Use a large baking dish to ensure the chicken pieces have enough space to cook evenly and not overcrowd each other.
  • Preheat the oven to the specified temperature before placing the chicken inside to ensure it cooks properly.
  • Keep an eye on the chicken while it bakes, and adjust the cooking time if necessary to prevent overcooking.
  • For a more flavorful dish, use homemade buttermilk ranch dressing instead of store-bought.
  • Serve the buttermilk ranch oven-fried chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or corn on the cob.
