    Spicy Buttermilk Battered Fried Chicken


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups buttermilk
    3 teaspoons red pepper sauce
    1 (3 to 4) pound chicken cut into 8 pieces, rinsed and patted dry
    2 1/2 cups flour
    1 tablespoon dried oregano
    1 tablespoon garlic powder
    1 teaspoon paprika
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1 tablespoon salt
    1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
    Crisco Canola Oil as needed

    Recipe



    In a shallow baking dish, whisk together the buttermilk and red pepper sauce. Add chicken pieces and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours and up to 24.

    In a shallow baking dish, whisk together the flour, oregano, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. Toss the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour, a few at a time, until well coated. Dip chicken in the buttermilk, then coat again in flour mixture.

    In a large heavy skillet, pour Crisco Pure Canola Oil to a depth of 1 inch. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F. (Use a deep fryer thermometer to measure the temperature.)

    Carefully add chicken pieces in a single layer, skin side down. Fry about 4 minutes; turn over and fry the other side for about 4 minutes. Turn again, frying a total of about 15 minutes, or until chicken is evenly golden brown and crisp.

    Carefully remove cooked chicken from pan. Place on a paper towel lined plate to drain. Serve warm or at room temperature.
