Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 whole fryer, cut into 8 pieces
Essence, recipe follows
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk
Vegetable oil for frying
2 1/2 cups flour
2 eggs, beaten
Salt and pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon dried thyme
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • Season the chicken pieces with Essence. Pour 2 cups of the buttermilk over the chicken and cover with plastic wrap. Place the chicken in the refrigerator and marinate for 1 hour.
  • Heat the oil in a large cast iron skillet. Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and drain. Season the flour with Essence. In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs with the remaining buttermilk. Dredge each piece of chicken in the seasoned flour. Dip each piece of chicken in the egg wash, letting the excess drip off. Dredge the chicken pieces back in the seasoned flour, coating each piece of the chicken completely. Carefully lay the chicken in the hot oil. Fry the chicken for 4 to 6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and the juices run clear. Remove the chicken from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

This recipe was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I might have used too much oil.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices to the breading.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken didn't come out crispy at all. It was still good, but it wasn't what I was hoping for.

I used this recipe to make chicken nuggets for my kids and they loved them. The nuggets were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The chicken is so delicious. I would recommend marinating the chicken for at least 2 hours before cooking.

This recipe was a disaster. The chicken was tough and the breading fell off. I won't be making this again.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I might have overcooked it a little bit.

This recipe is easy to follow and the chicken turned out delicious. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans.
