Ingredients
Chicken Marinade and Breading
Preparation and Cooking
1. Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Add the chicken pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
2. Prepare the Breading
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. This will be your breading mixture.
3. Coat the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess buttermilk to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating. Shake off any excess flour.
4. Heat the Oil
In a large, deep skillet or dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5. Fry the Chicken
Carefully add the coated chicken pieces to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 12-15 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C). Turn occasionally for even cooking.
6. Drain and Serve
Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Allow to rest for a few minutes before serving.
