1 cup of hidden valley ranch salad dressing
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
vegetable oil (for frying)

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken: Fresh chicken will yield the best results in terms of flavor and texture.
  • Brine the chicken: Brining the chicken helps to keep it moist and flavorful during the frying process.
  • Use a buttermilk and egg mixture: The buttermilk and egg mixture helps the flour coating to adhere to the chicken.
  • Season the flour coating generously: Don't be afraid to use a lot of seasoning in the flour coating. This is what will give the chicken its flavor.
  • Fry the chicken in hot oil: The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when the chicken is added.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Don't overcrowd the pan with chicken pieces. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy: The chicken should be cooked until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside and cooked through on the inside.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken.
