SOUTHERN-STYLE BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together buttermilk, mustard, salt and pepper, and cayenne in a bowl, and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 8 hours.
• When you are ready to cook the chicken, combine the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and onion powder in the other plastic bag. Shake to mix thoroughly. Transfer one marinated chicken piece at a time into the dry ingredient bag, and shake well to ensure complete coverage. After all chicken pieces are coated, repeat the process by dipping them in the buttermilk marinade and shaking in the dry coating again.

• When the oil is 350 degrees, lower three pieces only(!) carefully into the oil with a slotted spoon and adjust the heat to keep the oil at 350 degrees. Don't crowd the chicken! Cook for 5 minutes exactly, turning once to brown evenly. With the slotted spoon, transfer the chicken to the sheet pan in the oven to keep warm.

• Once shortening liquefies raise heat to 325 degrees F.
• Do not allow oil to go over 325 degrees F.
• Place chicken skin side down into the pan.

• The oil should come half way up the pan once the chicken is added.
• Cook chicken until golden brown on each side, approximately 10-12 minutes per side.
• The internal temperature should be right around 180 degrees.
• (Be careful to monitor shortening temperature every few minutes).
• Drain chicken on a rack over a sheet pan, NOT on paper towels or brown paper bags which just cause the chicken to soak in their own oil.
• If you need to hold the chicken before serving, cover loosely with foil but avoid holding in a warm oven, especially if it?.
• s a gas oven, which is very moist and will ruin your beautiful chicken crust!
