Method
Chicken Preparation
- 1
Marinate Chicken
In a bowl, combine buttermilk, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Submerge the chicken breasts in the buttermilk mixture and let marinate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for best results).
- 2
Coat Chicken
In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. Remove chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating.
- 3
Fry Chicken
Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil reaches 350°F (175°C), carefully add the coated chicken breasts. Fry for 6-8 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Mix Slaw Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, grated carrot, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Toss well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let flavors meld.
