Method
Preparing the Fried Chicken
- 1
Marinate Chicken
In a bowl, soak the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator to tenderize and flavor the meat.

Dredge Chicken
In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Remove chicken from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the flour mixture until fully coated.
