Spiced fried chicken is very popular in the southern United States. It involves seasoning the chicken with various spices, coating it in flour and buttermilk, and frying it. Some recipes call for mixing the buttermilk with an egg, but this recipe does not use egg.

Steps

60 minutes

1

Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels. Season the chicken with the fresh herbs and garlic.
2

Mix the dried spices together. Use two-thirds of the dried spice mix to season the chicken, and mix the rest with the flour. Let the chicken rest for 30 minutes.
3

Coat the chicken in the flour, then dip in the buttermilk, and coat again in the flour. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour. The flour will absorb moisture and help keep the oil clean while frying.
4

Heat the oil to 350°F (178°C). Fry the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked inside. When you insert a thermometer, it should read at least 165°F (74°C).
