"These are oven baked to save some of the fat and calories. The chicken is marinated in buttermilk and spices first. The breading is a mix of flour, panko breadcrumbs and cornmeal that has been spiced to perfection for extra crispiness and flavor, all this resulting in moist chicken on the inside, crispy breading on the outside but without the guilt of deep-frying."
