Method
Chicken Preparation
- 1
In a large bowl, combine buttermilk, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
- 2
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- 3
In a separate bowl, place the all-purpose flour. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing the excess to drip off, and dredge each piece in the flour to coat thoroughly.
- 4
In a large, deep frying pot, heat the cooking oil to 350°F (175°C).
- 5
Carefully place the flour-coated chicken pieces into the hot oil. Fry for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through, with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- 6
Remove the chicken from the oil and drain on paper towels.
French Fries Preparation
- 7
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to form fries.
- 8
Rinse the cut fries under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
- 9
In a separate pot, heat the cooking oil to 350°F (175°C).
- 10
Fry the potatoes in batches, cooking them for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.
Coleslaw Preparation
- 11
Finely shred the green cabbage and grate the carrot using a grater or food processor.
- 12
In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and salt. Mix thoroughly to coat all vegetables in the dressing.
- 13
Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
