Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs, if preferred)
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for desired spice level)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 2 tablespoons butter (for gravy)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for gravy)
  • 2 cups chicken broth (for gravy)
  • 1/2 cup milk (for gravy)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (for gravy)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (for gravy)
  • Salt to taste (for gravy)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine buttermilk and beaten eggs. Add chicken breasts and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In another bowl, mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove chicken from buttermilk mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the flour mixture, coating well.
  5. Fry chicken in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  6. For the gravy, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes.
  7. Gradually add chicken broth and milk, whisking continuously until thickened. Stir in thyme, black pepper, and salt to taste.
  8. Serve the fried chicken hot with gravy on top.

Notes

  • Adjust the cayenne pepper for desired spice level.
  • For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate longer in the buttermilk.
  • Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy texture.
