- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper

Instructions
- Marinate the chicken: Combine buttermilk, salt, pepper, and spices in a bowl. Submerge chicken breasts and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Prepare the breading: In another bowl, mix flour with remaining spices until well blended.
- Dredge the chicken: Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off. Coat each piece generously in the flour mixture.
- Heat oil: In a skillet or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering (about 350°F).
