Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups buttermilk
3 tablespoons curry powder
3 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
3 whole chicken legs, cut into leg and thigh pieces
6 chicken breast halves with skin and ribs
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 pounds cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons minced shallot
4 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
3 cups (about) canola oil
12 cups baby spinach leaves

Steps:

  • Mix buttermilk, curry powder, 3 teaspoons salt, and pepper in large bowl. Add chicken; turn to coat. Cover; chill at least 4 hours or overnight.

Dip in flour mixture and turn to coat; shake off excess. Add chicken, skin side down, to skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover; cook until brown, about 12 minutes. Turn chicken over. Cook uncovered until cooked through, about 5 minutes for breasts and 10 minutes for legs and thighs; transfer to paper towels. Repeat with remaining chicken. (Salad and chicken can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
  • Add spinach to tomato salad; season with salt and pepper. Divide salad among plates; top with chicken.

This dish was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I will try baking the chicken next time instead of frying it.

I've tried many fried chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The buttermilk marinade makes the chicken so tender and flavorful. The spinach tomato salad is also a great complement to the chicken.

This buttermilk fried chicken was amazing! The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The spinach tomato salad was a great addition and helped to balance out the richness of the chicken. I will definitely be making this dish again
