======================

Recipe:
6 servings
Prep time 25 minutes
Cook time 45 minutes
Total time 1 hour 10 minutes

10 to 12 chicken legs
½ cup all purpose flour
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon Smoked paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
½ tablespoon ground mustard
½ tablespoon chili powder
2 tablespoon Kent Rollins Mesquite seasoning, or salt, pepper and garlic powder
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups buttermilk
4 tablespoons butter melted

Remove chicken from the container and pat dry with paper towels. Place on a wire rack and let dry for another 15 minutes in the fridge.

In a medium bowl, add the flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, mustard, chili powder and Mesquite and mix well. Pour the contents into a large ziplock bag.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

In a small bowl, add the buttermilk and egg, whisk well until smooth.

Remove the chicken from the fridge and make sure to dry again to get any excess moisture with a paper towel. Dip the chicken in the egg mixture then place in the flour mixture and shake well. Shake off any excess coating and place on a wire rack.

Let the chicken set on the rack for at least 5 minutes then place the rack on a foiled baking sheet and cook for 25 minutes. Baste with butter, flip and baste the other side and continue to cook for another 20 minutes, or until the internal temp is 165 to 170 degrees F.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for about 3 to 4 minutes and serve.

Substitute the Mesquite seasoning with your favorite all-purpose seasoning.
