Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.

In a separate bowl, mix together flour, cornmeal, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Fry the Chicken
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and dredge each piece in the flour mixture. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
