Comfort dinner

In need of some fatty goodness, I turned to a Southern fave - fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and of course, to counteract the fat, buttered peas. I made sure to make the potatoes extra fatty by adding sour cream and cheese. They were luscious.

For the chicken, I relied on boneless, skinless tenderloins which I marinated in buttermilk for most of the day. They were then THRICE dredged in a mixture of flour, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne. Then pan fried in a relatively small amount of hot peanut oil/butter. Delish.
