Preparation Steps

Prepare the Chicken

In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. In another shallow dish, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs.

Coat the Chicken

Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, then dip in the buttermilk mixture, and finally coat again in the flour mixture. Set aside on a plate.

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Fry the Chicken

Carefully add the coated chicken breasts to the hot oil. Fry for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C). Remove and drain on paper towels.

Make the Gravy

In a saucepan, add 0.5 cups of flour to the remaining oil in the skillet. Stir over medium heat for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Gradually whisk in the milk and cook until thickened. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Serve

Serve the chicken fried chicken topped with cream gravy, alongside fresh-cut French fries or mashed potatoes, a garden salad, and Texas toast.
