Great recipe and combination of spices. Very hot but manageable for the adults with pickles and ranch on the side. I served with sweet potato pancakes and syrup, weird combo but it works.

This was SO delicious ! 
l only used the oil recipe as i made a keto version . I substituted swerve brown sugar replacement  in place of regular brown sugar . Next time i am making the whole recipe .

Taste was amazing and skin came out great, but the cooking time listed was way too short for bone-in chicken Or my chicken was too thick and the temperature of the oil was a bit too hot, mine were undercooked And needed to be finished in the oven.

I love hot chicken, this is a fantastic recipe.

This was amazing and so easy.  Couldn't believe how spot on it was to some of my favorites.

The double dipping , flour, egg, batter  just wasted  the first dip. But the oil , 4thumbs up, I put less cayenne than required,  this was delicious. Spicy + sweet= fantastic

Easy No Breaded Fried Chicken

This Buttermilk Fried Chicken recipe is packed with all the tips you need to make EXTRA crispy fried chicken. Once you give this a go, you won&#039;t have it any other way!

Buttermilk Fried Chicken

/ 1litre Vegetable Oil,

/ 500 milliliters Buttermilk

tsp EACH: Paprika, Cayenne Pepper, White Pepper, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Salt

Plain/All Purpose Flour

Paprika

tsp EACH: Oregano, Baking Powder

Salt,

tsp EACH: Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Cayenne Pepper, Black Pepper

In a bowl, combine the wet mix with your chicken, ensuring it&#039;s fully coated by the marinade. Cover and allow to marinate in the fridge for an absolute minimum of 4 hours, but the longer the better (up to 24hours). Remove at least 30mins before you intend to use it to bring to room temp (important - frying cold chicken causes it to seize up and go chewy).

Meanwhile, combine all of your dry mix. I find this easiest in a small tray, but you can also use a shallow bowl. Dip a piece of your chicken into the mix and fully coat. Really make sure you get the mix in every part of the chicken, this will give you those &#039;flaky&#039; parts which make the chicken extra crispy. The more craggy/flaky the chicken is the crunchier it&#039;ll be. Place on a wire rack and repeat with the remaining chicken.

Heat up enough oil to comfortably cover the depth of your largest piece of chicken. Drop a piece of mixture in, if it slowly sizzles to the top you&#039;re good to go. You want the oil to be approx 175C/350F - 180C/356F. The temp will drop when the chicken hits the oil, and that&#039;s okay, just try to maintain a heat of around 320F/160C. A medium heat should obtain this.

In batches of 3 (4 max) gently place your chicken in the oil, making sure you add the same cuts at the same time so they cook at an even rate (thighs, drums, wings). Deep fry for 6-8mins on each side or until deep golden and white through the centre (see notes). Don&#039;t move the chicken for the first couple of mins, you need the batter to attach to the chicken. Timings will depend on the size of the chicken pieces, how many there are and heat retention, so just be vigilant. Bring heat back to 175C/350F - 180C/356F between each batch.

Place each piece on a wire rack with paper towels underneath when finished and sprinkle with salt to draw out the last bit of moisture and bring out the seasoning. The chicken should be piping hot with the juices running clear. In all circumstances the chicken internal temp 165F/75C (take into consideration it continues cooking slightly once out the oil).

This is the best fried chicken I&#39;ve ever had. Tweaked from world-renowned chef Thomas Keller, it has a moist and flavorful interior and a crisp breading that&#39;s robustly crunchy and feathered.

water

salt

lemon (sliced)

bay leaves

tbsp black peppercorns

flat leaf parsley

rosemary

tbsp honey

garlic (smashed)

all-purpose flour

onion powder

tsp pepper

buttermilk

red potato salad

coleslaw

cornbread

Place all the chicken brine ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil.

Boil the brine for 1 minute, until the salt dissolves, then chill it completely.  If you’re in a hurry, you can place the mixture in a bowl and set that in an ice bath. Otherwise, let it chill to room temperature, then place it in the fridge.

Once the mixture is chilled, place the chicken in the brine for 8 hours. Try not to go beyond 8 hours or the chicken will get too salty. 

Discard the brine and pat the chicken very dry with paper towels.  Let the chicken sit at room temperature for 1 hour while you prep the other ingredients.

Mix the flour with the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Split this between two bowls. Place the buttermilk in a third bowl, and set it in between the two spiced flour bowls.

Using either a dedicated deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot at least 10&quot; wide and checking the temperature with a thermometer, add enough tallow to come a few inches up the pot. Preheat the temperature to 320F.

In the meantime, bread the drumsticks and thighs by dipping each piece into the flour mixture, shaking off the excess, then the buttermilk, shaking off the excess, then the flour mixture again. 

Fry the drumsticks and thighs for 10 minutes, until golden brown and 170F inside, then drain on paper towels.

Raise the fryer heat to 340F. Dip the wings and breasts into the flour, shake off the excess, then the buttermilk, shake off the excess, then the flour again. 

Fry the wings and breasts for 6 to 7 minutes, until golden brown and cooked to 160F, then drain on paper towels. Enjoy!
