Instructions

Step 1

Start by placing your chicken in a large zip close bag and adding in the pickle juice and buttermilk. Smoosh around to get all the chicken coated and let sit for 20 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile heat at least an inch deep of oil to 350 degrees F. Combine the flour, breadcrumbs, powdered sugar, garlic powder, paprika, baking powder, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Drain the marinade from the chicken and discard. Dip each piece of chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, coating completely, and then carefully add to the fryer. Cook in small batches so you do not decrease the temperature of the oil. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes, until the chicken is a deep golden brown, then place chicken on a wire cooling rack to cool slightly. Keep cooking until all chicken is done. Enjoy!
