Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless chicken thighs
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons Hot sauce
• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 4 cups Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Cut the boneless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the chicken pieces and marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 3

In another bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Step 4

Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off.

Step 5

Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, ensuring each piece is well coated. Press the flour mixture onto the chicken to create a thick crust.

Step 6

Place coated chicken pieces on a wire rack and let them rest for 10 minutes to allow the coating to set.

Step 7

Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 8

Carefully place the chicken pieces into the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 9

Fry the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

Step 10

Remove the chicken pieces from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 11

Serve the fried chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
