Directions: |
Directions:Combine chicken and buttermilk in a large nonmetal bowl; cover and chill 8-12 hours. Drain the chicken, discarding the buttermilk. Preheat the oven to 350º. Combine salt and pepper; sprinkle half of the salt mixture over the chicken. Combine the remaining salt mixture and flour in a large gallon freezer bag and shake to coat. Repeat procedure with remaining chicken. Pour oil to depth of 1/4 in a large skillet. Heat on medium-high until it sizzles. Fry chicken pieces in 2 batches in hot oil for 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until browned. Place chicken on a wire rack with a baking pan under it to collect any fat and juices. Bake for 30 minutes or until clear juice comes out after you test a piece. The darker meat needs more time to cook so check that one first. |
