Marinade

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare Marinade

    In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate Chicken

    Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight for the best flavor.

Breading the Chicken

  1. 3

    Prepare Breading Mixture

    In another bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until well blended.

  2. 4

    Coat Chicken

    Remove the marinated chicken from the fridge. Dip each piece into the flour mixture, ensuring a thorough coating. Shake off any excess flour.

Frying the Chicken

  1. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a deep fryer or large heavy pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.

  2. 6

    Fry Chicken

    Carefully add the breaded chicken pieces to the hot oil, taking care not to overcrowd the pot. Fry in batches if necessary for about 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).

  3. 7

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried chicken from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Allow to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious broasted chicken!
