Instructions:
Fried Chicken
- Marinate 4 chicken breasts in 1 cup of buttermilk, ½ teaspoon of garlic salt with parsley, ¼ teaspoon of black pepper and ¼ teaspoon of cayenne pepper. The chicken can be cut in half if desired, but it will need to marinate in a refrigerated airtight container for at least 2 hours.
- Prepare the fried chicken batter by combining 1 cup of flour, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, 2 teaspoons of garlic salt with parsley, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, ½ teaspoon of cayenne pepper and 1 cup of oil.
- Once marinated, place the chicken pieces in the batter and make sure the dry ingredients adequately cover each nook and cranny.
- Heat oil in a frying pan on a medium setting and place the chicken pieces in once it starts sizzling.
- Cook the chicken for 5 minutes on each side, using tongs to flip it back and forth. Continue to fry the chicken until the crust turns golden brown.
- Remove the chicken from the oil and place it on a plate with paper towels, so the excess oil can drain.
- Drizzle the chicken with honey.
