Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place ¾ cup buttermilk in a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, combine cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
  2. Dip chicken in the buttermilk (letting any excess drip off), then the cornmeal, pressing gently to help it adhere.
  3. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook half the chicken until golden and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  4. Wipe out the skillet. Repeat with remaining oil and chicken.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, honey, remaining ¼ cup of buttermilk, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  6. In a large bowl, toss lettuce and bell pepper with the dressing. Serve with the chicken.

    Turnips

    Although the turnip has been grown for more than 4,000 years and was one of the first foods to be cultivated in Europe, it is currently underappreciated: It keeps well, takes to almost any cooking method, and has a subtly flavored, tasty flesh.
