Steps:

1. FOR THE MARINADE: In a large bowl, mix together the buttermilk, mustard, hot sauce, paprika, pepper, and salt. Put the chicken pieces in the marinade and stir and turn to coat all pieces. Transfer all to a heavy plastic bag or baking pan large enough to hold the pieces in one layer. Seal and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 - 8 hours.
2. FOR THE BREADING: Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a large baking pan with aluminum foil, and place a rack over it. Place the flour, salt and pepper in a bag. Remove chicken pieces from marinade, place in the bag, and shake until coated.
3. TO BAKE: Place the chicken on the rack in the prepared baking pan, not overlapping. Bake for 40-50 minutes until the chicken is golden brown and the juices run clear.
