Fried Chicken & Biscuits Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Marinate the Chicken

   In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for best results).

2. 2

   Prepare the Breading

   In another bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

3. 3

   Fry the Chicken

   Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Remove chicken from the marinade, allowing excess buttermilk to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, pressing to adhere. Fry the chicken in batches for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

4. 4

   Make the Gravy

   In a separate pan, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned. Stir in the butter, then sprinkle in flour and cook for about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk, cooking until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Prepare the Biscuits

   Bake the buttermilk biscuits according to package instructions or your favorite recipe.

6. 6

   Cook the Breakfast Potatoes

   Dice the breakfast potatoes and cook in a skillet with oil until golden brown and tender, about 15-20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve the crispy fried chicken topped with gravy alongside the fresh-baked biscuits and breakfast potatoes.
