Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the chicken thighs and ensure they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Coating

    In another bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    Remove chicken from the marinade, letting excess buttermilk drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, pressing to adhere. Fry in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
