Step by Step Method

Step 1

Put the chicken in a large mixing bowl, add the hot sauce, buttermilk, salt, pepper, and garlic; stir to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 8-24 hours, turning the chicken pieces several times.

Step 2

Remove the chicken from the refrigerator. In a deep cast-iron skillet, heat the vegetable oil to 360 degrees F.

Step 3

Combine the flour and 4 teaspoons of the Creole seasoning in a 13 x 9inch pan.

Step 4

Add chicken pieces then using your hands toss in the flour coating evenly and shaking off any excess.

Step 5

Transfer breaded to a rack, allow to sit 15-20 minutes.

Step 6

Fry the chicken, 4 to 5 pieces at a time, in the hot oil until golden brown, about 6 minutes on each side.

Step 7

Drain on paper towels.

Step 8

Sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning.

Step 9

Serve hot.

This is some great fried chicken with a little heat. The gang I was cooking for loved it. It reminds me of Paula Deen's recipe a little.
