Triple-Dipped Fried Chicken Ultra Crispy Triple-Dipped Buttermilk Fried Chicken Ingredients: 4 bone-in chicken thighs 4 bone-in chicken drumsticks 2 cups buttermilk 2 teaspoons hot sauce (optional) 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon garlic powder 1 tablespoon onion powder 1 tablespoon paprika 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon salt 2 large eggs 2 tablespoons water Vegetable oil, for frying Directions: In a large bowl, mix buttermilk and hot sauce. Submerge the chicken pieces, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for maximum flavor and tenderness. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, black pepper, and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs with water to create an egg wash. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess drip off. Dredge each piece in the seasoned flour, then dip into the egg wash, and finally dredge again in the flour mixture—repeat this step twice for that triple-dipped crunch. Place coated chicken on a rack and let it rest for 10–15 minutes to set the crust. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the chicken in batches without overcrowding for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Drain on a wire rack or paper towels. Serve hot!
