Ingredients:
- Fried chicken
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup Oîkos 0% plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp. Frank's Red Hot style sauce
- Salt and pepper
- 2 cups of flour
- 2 tbsp. smoked paprika
- 2 tbsp. chili powder
- 2 tbsp. garlic powder
- 2 tbsp. salt
- Peanut oil in enough quantity
Preparation steps
-
Cut breasts into fillets.
-
Place fillets in a freezer bag with buttermilk, yogurt, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 3 hours.
-
Sift flour, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper into a large mixing bowl.
-
Prepare the sauce. In a bowl, combine yogurt, garlic, parsley, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Cover and set aside in the refrigerator.
-
In a saucepan, add oil to a height of approximately 4 cm (enough to cover the chicken fillets.) Heat oil over medium heat for at least 10 minutes.
*If you have a cooking thermometer, bring the oil to 350°F.
-
Prepare a baking sheet with a wire rack (or several layers of paper towels) to remove excess oil once the chicken is cooked.
-
Once the oil is hot, place the marinated chicken in the flour mixture in 3 batches (so as not to overload the pot with oil). Using tongs, cover fillets with breading and strain to remove excess flour mixture. Cook in hot oil.
