Southern Fried Chicken
- Prep: 5 mins
- 8-12 mins
- Serves: 4
I don't really think there is any more ultimate fakeaway! Serve it how you like it, but I love a good homemade coleslaw, pickles and hot sauce. This is a family favourite!
Ingredients
- 500g chicken thigh fillet cut into halves
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 tbsp sweet paprika
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt plus extra to sprinkle
- 2 cups flour
- Oil for frying
Method
- Mix together spices and salt, sprinkle over both sides of chicken.
- Toss chicken in buttermilk – Ideally leave to marinate for 30 minutes. It’s okay if you don’t, it will still be delicious!
- Heat your oil to a medium – high heat in a large skillet. Dip each piece of chicken (coated in buttermilk) into the flour, shake off any excess and then cook in the oil.
- Cook for 8-12 minutes or until crisp and golden.
- Drain on paper towel.
- Sprinkle with salt to serve.
