Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • Ein Sara Vegetable oil for frying

How to prepare?

  •  Marinate the Chicken
    Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for extra tenderness and flavor.
  •  Prepare the Coating
    In a separate bowl, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasonings.
  • Coat the Chicken
    Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off. Dredge each piece thoroughly in the seasoned flour mixture until fully coated.
  • Fry Until Golden
    Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 175°C (350°F). Carefully place the chicken into the hot oil and fry for 12–15 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked.
  • Rest and Serve
    Transfer the fried chicken to a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with fries, coleslaw, biscuits, or your favorite dipping sauce.
