"This chicken calls out to be served with gravy and mashed taters! Plan ahead the chicken needs to soak in the buttermilk for at least 6 hours, the chicken is double-dipped for an extra crispy coating. For some heat, add in 2-3 tablespoons Frank's Red Hot sauce to the buttermilk mixture"

Step by Step Method

Step 1

In a large bowl whisk the egg with buttermilk until well combined.

Step 2

Add in the chicken breasts and turn to coat in the buttermilk; refrigerate for at least 5 hours (turning the chicken occasionally).

Step 3

In a shallow bowl combine all breading mixture together until well combined (I recommend to have all the chicken breaded and placed on a plate before frying).

Step 4

Place the chicken in a colander and allow to drain off excess buttermilk mixture.

Step 5

Dredge each breast into the flour mixture pressing down with hands to firmly adhere the breading to the chicken; place the breaded chicken on a plate or a rack.

Step 6

Allow the chicken to sit for 15 minutes then lightly coat again in the flour mixture.

Step 7

Heat oil in a skillet (use enough oil to generously coat the bottom of the skillet). Fry each breast until golden brown and cooked through.

Incredibly moist and easy to make. The hardest part is waiting 6 hours to eat a Kittencal's recipe. So I cheated and only waited 4 hours and still very good.

I made some collard greens, hushpuppies, and coleslaw to go with these cutlets and it was an awesome meal. The cutlets were so tender and delicious! I want to have these again real soon and have it in a roll with lettuce, tomato and mayo. It will be a great sandwich for sure! Thank you for another winner of a recipe Kitten. This will be enjoyed for many years to come! Linda
