Buttermilk Fried Chicken

Preparación

1. 1

   Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, combine the flour, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

3. 3

   Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.

4. 4

   Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

5. 5

   Carefully place the coated chicken breasts in the hot oil, frying them in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.

6. 6

   Fry the chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

7. 7

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

8. 8

   Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Buttermilk Fried Chicken!
