Instructions For Making Crispy Fried Chicken:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs until well combined.
- Dip each piece of chicken first into the buttermilk mixture, allowing excess to drip off, and then coat it in the seasoned flour mixture, pressing to adhere the flour to the chicken.
- In a frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 175°C (350°F).
- Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F).
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
