Method
Chicken Preparation
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the chicken wings (or mixed parts) to the bowl, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight to maximize flavor.
Breading Mixture
- 2
Prepare the Breading
In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until well combined.
Frying
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, add vegetable oil and heat it to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
- 4
Bread the Chicken
Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator. Shake off excess buttermilk and dredge each piece in the breading mixture, making sure it is well coated. Place the coated chicken on a wire rack for a few minutes to allow the breading to set.
- 5
Fry the Chicken
Carefully place the breaded chicken pieces into the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding. Fry in batches for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
- 6
Drain Excess Oil
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- 7
Serve
Serve the fried chicken hot with your choice of dipping sauces or sides.
