Cut the foundation out of the hen utilizing a pair of kitchen area shears and discard. Cut the poultry in two by cutting in between the busts down through the bust bone. You must now have 8 items of comparable size.
Season all sides of the poultry freely with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Period cautiously with cayenne. Area the poultry into a gallon ziplock bag as well as gather just sufficient buttermilk to coat the poultry in a thick paste. Shut the bag and smush it around until every little thing is coated.

MY COOKING PHILOSOPHY:
I do not such as considering or gauging points if I do not have to, and also I don't such as to be constantly inspecting a dish as I prepare. If you're like me, my objective with these videos is to provide you a feeling of how the food must look and also feel as you're cooking it, rather than give you a fine-tuned formula to duplicate.
