Step 1

In a bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, salt and hot sauce.

Step 2

Transfer the chicken breasts to the buttermilk marinade and cover. Refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour.

Step 3

Add at least 2 inches of oil to a large pot and heat to 350 degrees F.

Step 4

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, white pepper, celery salt, granulated garlic and paprika powder.

Step 5

Remove the chicken breast from the buttermilk marinade allowing the excess to drip off before transferring to the seasoned flour.

Step 6

Coat each chicken breast completely with the flour then transfer to the hot oil and deep fry for 15-20 minutes, flipping the chicken throughout the process. Don't over crowd the pan. The fried chicken is ready once a kitchen thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads at least 165 degrees F.

Step 7

Transfer the chicken to a plate or wire rack and blot with a paper towel to absorb the excess oil.

Step 8

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with your favorite side dish or make a chicken sandwich and enjoy.
