Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 pounds chicken pieces
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup buttermilk
Seasonings:
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Liquids and Oils:
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- Vegetable oil
Instructions
- Submerge chicken pieces in a buttermilk and hot sauce bath for 2 hours in your refrigerator, ensuring total coverage.
- Create a seasoned flour blend by combining 2 cups flour with 1 tablespoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika, plus 1 teaspoon each of cayenne, salt, and black pepper.
- Remove chicken from buttermilk, letting excess liquid drip away completely.
- Coat each chicken piece thoroughly in seasoned flour mixture, pressing gently to help breading adhere.
- Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large skillet to exactly 350°F.
- Carefully place chicken pieces into hot oil, spacing them to prevent overcrowding.
- Fry chicken for 12-15 minutes, rotating periodically to ensure even golden-brown coloration.
- Check internal temperature reaches 165°F using a meat thermometer for safe consumption.
- Transfer fried chicken to a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Allow chicken to rest for 3-4 minutes before serving, which helps retain juiciness.
Notes
- Marinate the chicken in buttermilk and hot sauce overnight to get deep, rich flavor and tender meat.
- Use a thermometer to check oil temperature, keeping it steady around 350°F for perfectly crispy exterior without burning.
- For extra crunch, do a double dredge by returning chicken to buttermilk and flour mixture a second time before frying.
- Make the dish gluten-free by substituting regular flour with cornstarch or gluten-free flour blend, which keeps the coating equally crispy.
