Deep Fried Buttermilk Chicken

This recipe was created purely by luck and seemed to be a hit in my house. It was one of those days where we only had a couple things and somehow I needed to find a way to make them all work for me. This is a very simple recipe and it makes a very filling meal.


Ingredients:

1-2 cups of flour
2 tsp salt
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp black pepper
2 cups buttermilk
Chicken legs, wings, breasts or tenderloins

In medium bowl combine all dry ingredients and mix well.

In large bowl soak chicken in buttermilk for 2 or more hours

Once chicken as soaked, drain all buttermilk from chicken and place in flour

Make sure to evenly and thickly coat the chicken.

Heat up some oil in your deep fryer or put some oil in a pot about 2 inches deep and heat that up.

Place chicken inside and cook until a nice dark brown (but not burnt)

**You can also cut up the tenderloins and breasts into small pieces and coat in flour to make popcorn chicken
