Instructions
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk and salt. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
Prepare the Coating
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Coat the Chicken
Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Ensure an even coating.
Heat the Oil
In a large, deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Chicken
Carefully place the coated chicken breasts into the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through, with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Drain and Serve
Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
