Fried Chicken Batter

Ingredients

yield: 4 servings

  • 1 quart buttermilk
  • 3 1/2 pound chicken parts (bone-in, skin-on; if using breasts, halve)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • Peanut oil, for frying
  • Special Equipment:
  • Deep-fry thermometer
  • Steps:

  1. Place buttermilk in a large, shallow nonreactive dish and add chicken. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  2. Combine flour, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large plastic bag.
  3. Remove chicken pieces from buttermilk and add to bag with flour mixture. Shake to coat; dust off excess.
  4. Pour 3/4″ peanut oil into a heavy skillet. Heat oil over medium-high heat until it registers 350° on a deep-fry thermometer. Reduce heat to medium and add the chicken pieces, a few at a time. Fry each piece for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until it is crispy and golden and internal temperature registers 165° on an instant-read thermometer. Drain on paper towels; serve.
