Sometimes there is the proper way to make something and then there is the way it actually gets done. There are a few steps that I would have done to the above dish that I didn’t. Four to eight hour brine? Didn’t have time. Buttermilk soak? Didn’t feel like going to the store (who has buttermilk hanging around?). What I did have was some chicken, carrots, cabbage and the desire to get off the couch for a meal that isn’t that complicated and everybody likes: Fried Chicken and Coleslaw.
