Prep Time: 25 min

Cook Time: 40 min

Total Time: 1 hr 5 min

 

 

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 ½ cups vegetable oil

Buttermilk Marinade

  • 2 cups buttermilk, see notes for substitutions
  • 2 large eggs, whisked
  • 3 teaspoons salt

Breading

  • 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs, plain or Italian
  • 2 ½ teaspoons seasoned salt
  • ¾ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 ½ teaspoon black pepper

 

Instructions

Setting Up

  1. Each chicken breast should be wrapped with Saran wrap. Use a meat tenderizer to flatten and roughly 1/2 inch thicken the chicken.

  2. Dry the chicken entirely with a towel. Buttermilk, salt, and whisked eggs should all be combined. Add the chicken and let it marinate for one to two hours (or overnight). It will become more delicate the longer it marinates.

  3. Before frying, allow the chicken to remain at room temperature for 25 to 30 minutes.

 

Recipe Directions

  1. Add the breading ingredients to the chicken that has been marinated. Until it is entirely dry and coated, flip it over several times and work the breading into all of the nooks and crevices. Don't bread the chicken in its entirety at once. Each item should be ready just before you start to fry it.

  2. Heat a skillet to 350° and add enough oil to cover the chicken by half. If at all feasible, cook your food in a cast iron skillet since it evenly distributes heat.

  3. Delicately flip the chicken with a thin spatula once the outside edges have nicely browned up after being carefully added and cooked for 4-5 minutes on each side.

  4. Once both sides are golden brown, carefully remove them to a wire cooling rack and let any remaining oil drip out the bottom. By doing this, the bottom is kept from getting wet.

  5. Serve with cornbread, mashed potatoes, and brown or chicken gravy after repeating all the chicken breasts.
