Crispy Buttermilk-Dipped Chicken Breast
Method
Preparation
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk and a pinch of salt. Add the chicken breasts and ensure they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- 2
Prepare the Coating
In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- 3
Coat the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, pressing down to ensure an even coating. Set aside.
- 4
Fry the Chicken
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated chicken breasts. Fry for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
