1. Prep the Chicken
Cut the chicken into pieces and remove the skin if preferred.
Place the flour in a large plastic bag and season generously with POI Hot Paprika, Lemon Pepper, and Garlic Salt. Adjust the amount of flour based on how many pieces you’re frying.
Dip the chicken pieces in buttermilk, then place them into the bag of seasoned flour. Seal the bag and shake well to coat the chicken evenly.
Transfer the coated chicken to a tray and cover it with a clean dish towel or wax paper. Let it sit until the flour coating develops a paste-like consistency.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet (cast iron works best), filling it about 1/3 to 1/2 full. Ensure the oil is very hot before adding the chicken.
Once browned, lower the heat, cover the skillet, and cook for 30 minutes. This step ensures the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the cover, increase the heat, and fry until the chicken is crispy and golden brown.
Drain the chicken on paper towels. Keep finished pieces warm in a slightly heated oven while frying the rest.
Pair your crispy fried chicken with classic sides like mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or cornbread. For a healthier touch, serve it with a fresh kale salad or roasted vegetables.
