Buttermilk Marinated Chicken

Cut up a chicken or buy pieces and simply marinate for 8 – 12 hours. We don’t count carbs because the marinade is discarded.

Use any vegetables you have depending on the season.Make sure to use Maldon salt or some other sea salt. If using table salt cut the amount in half. The type of salt really does make a difference.
