Fried Chicken Preparation

Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine the buttermilk with salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Add the boneless chicken thighs, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Fry the Chicken
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Remove each chicken thigh from the buttermilk marinade, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the seasoned flour, pressing lightly to adhere. Fry the chicken in the hot oil for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
