Directions
Buttermilk Southern Fried Chicken, , Great recipe. Good proportions. The amount of salt was just right. I added a couple smashed garlic cloves and a little sriracha to the buttermilk and soaked the chicken all day. Also added a little sugar to the flour. Very flavorful chicken., I was surprised that this chicken turned out crispy and NOT greasy with the cooking directions. However, the crispiness was great and it was not greasy at all. We pretty much followed the recipe. The only reason I give this one four out of five stars is the breading needed more seasoning…a BIG thing for fried chicken. Next time, I will add in more salt and hubby says cayenne as well.
