How to cook deliciously - Picnic Fried Chicken

1. Stage

Pat chicken pieces with paper towels; place in large flat dish. Pour buttermilk over chicken; cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.

2. Stage

Combine coating ingredients in a shallow dish or large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken pieces, 1 at a time, and turn to coat. Lay coated pieces on waxed paper for 15 minutes to allow coating to dry (this will help coating cling during frying).

3. Stage

In a Dutch oven or deep skillet, heat 1/2 in. oil over medium heat to 350°. Fry chicken in batches, uncovered, turning occasionally, until coating is dark golden brown and meat is no longer pink, 7-8 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
