Fried Chicken

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, soak the bone-in chicken pieces in buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading

    In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Remove chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring a full coating. Shake off any excess flour.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully place breaded chicken pieces in the hot oil, cooking in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 10-15 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve hot with hot pepper honey and country gravy.
