Drain on wire rack to keep chicken. With a rolling pin or a meat mallet, pound the chicken. Oh my, I may be a Northern Girl but I know good Southern Fried Chicken when I taste it! I never grew up eating fried chicken and my husband had a craving for some good "Southern-Sytle" fried chicken so I read through a bunch of recipes but obviously knew that fried chicken has to be moist my on the inside and the breading has to be thick enough to stand up to the frying process so it can be.
Instructions to make Best Buttermilk Fried Chicken:
- In a large frying pan, pour in the oil and turn heat on high.
- Measure out the flour and buttermilk, and put in separate bowls. (See step 3 on how to make your own buttermilk from scratch.)
- You can easily make buttermilk with whole milk and either lemon juice or white vinegar. For every 1/2 cup of milk you use, add 1/2 tsp of lemon juice or white vinegar; whisk together. (For this recipe I wanted the lemon flavor to stand out a little more so I did 1/2 tsp per 1/4 cup of milk.)
- Combine the buttermilk with the eggs; mix well with a fork or whisk.
- Add all the spices into the bowl of flour and mix.
- Coat the chicken strips in the flour mixture and dunk into the egg mixture. Then, coat them again in flour.
- By now your oil is hot enough to put the chicken in. Reduce heat to medium-low. Place the strips in the oil and cook on each side for 2 minutes. Then, take out and let the chicken rest for 2 minutes.
- After resting the chicken, put back into the frying pan and cook for 30 seconds on each side. Place on a plate or cooking rack.
- Serve with your favorite side dish and sauce! Sauce ideas: ketchup, BBQ sauce, glaze with honey, or just eat plain!
- If you really want to satisfy your taste buds, check out my recipe for buttermilk biscuits (on the recipe for Chicken Pot "No Pie" with buttermilk biscuits.) and make a honey-glazed-fried-chicken-biscuit sandwich!
- Sooo good! Check out my recipe for macaroni potato salad that pairs excellently with this dish!
An intensely flavored buttermilk brine tenderizes the chicken while keeping it moist. Adding wet ingredients to the dry flour coating ensures an extra-craggy crust with lots of nooks and crannies. Starting in hot fat and finishing in the oven gives you fried chicken with a crisp crust and evenly cooked meat. This is the crispiest fried chicken that you will prepare. It features a buttermilk and flour-based cayenne coating, deep fried to crispy perfection, perfect for picnics.
