Steps:
- Whisk the buttermilk, hot sauce, thyme, garlic, 2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces, turn to coat, cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight.
- Whisk the flour, paprika and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl. Drain the chicken. Coat the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, shake off any excess and lay on a piece of parchment or wax paper.
- Set a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet. Fill a large skillet (cast iron preferred) with 3/4-inch of oil. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 340 degrees F. Working in batches, add the chicken skin side down, and cook, turning once, until the chicken is well browned on the outside and no longer pink near the bone, about 25 minutes total. The temperature of the oil will drop when the chicken is added to the skillet. Adjust the heat as the chicken cooks to maintain it around 250 degrees F. Transfer the cooked chicken to the prepared baking sheet. Serve hot or at room temperature.
CHEF JOHN'S BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN
I love the tangy tenderization that the buttermilk provides. After the buttermilk soak, dredge the chicken pieces in seasoned flour, and fry them in hot oil until crisp and cooked.

For our family, it's not a picnic unless there's fried chicken! Chicken, deviled eggs and potato salad are all musts for a picnic as far as my husband is concerned. This is a "Golden Oldie" recipe for me-I've used it any number of times. -Edna Hoffman, Hebron, Indiana

Steps:
- Make the marinade by combining the buttermilk, sour cream, Dijon mustard, salt and freshly ground black pepper in a large bowl. Mix well with a whisk. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper and place in the marinade. Stir everything together so the chicken is coated evenly, cover, and set aside in the fridge to marinate for 12 hours.
- Fill a heavy-based pot (such a deep cast iron skillet) with canola oil and set over medium-high heat. Using a thermometer, heat the oil until 375 degrees F. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Prepare the coating by adding the all-purpose flour, salt, paprika, mustard powder, and garlic powder together in a large bowl. Mix with a whisk. Take the chicken pieces out of the marinade and dredge lightly in the seasoned flour, 1 at a time. Set the coated pieces on a wire rack over a tray as you work.
- Add the chicken, 3 to 4 pieces at a time, to the hot oil, skin-side down. Cook until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Increase the heat on the oil if you need to as the chicken will bring the temperature of the oil down. Remove the chicken from the pot with a wire strainer and set over a clean rack over a tray. Season with salt while still hot. Continue to cook in batches, allowing the oil to heat up again before adding the chicken to the pot each time.
- Place the chicken into the oven and cook for another 8 to 10 minutes until cooked through. Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Pile high in a basket for a fun presentation.

Steps:
- With a cleaver or heavy knife, split the chicken breasts, then cut each breast half in half again. Place the chicken pieces in a shallow container skin-side down and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight, if possible. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and season both sides with salt and pepper. Place the beaten eggs and flour in separate shallow bowls. Dredge the chicken pieces first in the flour, then the egg, and then the flour again. In a 12-inch saute pan with deep sides, melt enough shortening so that it is 2 inches deep and heat the pan until the oil begins to smoke. Fry the chicken for 2 minutes on each side, until the skin is golden brown. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake the chicken for 15 minutes, or until cooked through. Serve warm immediately, or store in the refrigerator for the next day's picnic. This recipe yields 4 servings.
