Buttermilk Oven-Fried Chicken & Ranch Red Potatoes

I wanted a simple dinner this weekend so I settled for cooking oven fried chicken breasts and some ranch potatoes. We had some fresh orange slices with this meal and it was perfect. The weather was really decent and we enjoyed this meal on the patio.
