To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
For the Buttermilk Fried Chicken:
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Vegetable oil for frying
For the Honey Dipping Sauce:
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
To start, marinate the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 2 hours or overnight. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and coat each piece in the flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour and carefully place the chicken in the hot oil. Fry the chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is frying, make the honey dipping sauce by whisking together the honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve the Buttermilk Fried Chicken with the Honey Dipping Sauce on the side.
This dish is perfect for any occasion, whether it's a family dinner or a party with friends. The crispy fried chicken is perfectly seasoned and pairs perfectly with the sweet and tangy honey dipping sauce. The appearance of the dish is golden brown and crispy, while the taste is savory and sweet.
