Method

Fried Chicken Preparation

Marinate the Chicken

In a large bowl, combine buttermilk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Add chicken thighs to the buttermilk mixture, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Prepare the Coating

In a separate bowl, mix together flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Fry the Chicken

Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and dredge each piece in the flour mixture. Fry the chicken in batches for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

Waffle Preparation

Prepare the Waffle Batter

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In another bowl, beat eggs and mix with milk and melted butter. Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
