If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
For a more flavorful coating, add some herbs and spices to the flour mixture, such as paprika, garlic powder, or onion powder.
Serve the chicken pom poms with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, barbecue sauce, or honey mustard.
