Hey, I’m trying to make fried chicken. I MUST today, for the sake of my future confidence and the joy of my day TODAY. I want to use chicken breast, thighs are too fatty for me.

How? I’m looking up recipes but they all seem so disingenuous. I know that sounds stupid, but I thought maybe asking real people would give me a better chance.

Chicken breast, buttermilk. Those are the only ingredients I feel like I must use. Anyone have any advice on the fried chicken? I’ve got regular canola oil, olive oil, extra virgin, and I’m waiting to visit the grocery store. I was about to go but I just don’t feel confident. Please, anyone have a list of ingredients worth using together?

    brine chicken breast in buttermilk,

    bread with flour,

    then beaten egg,

    then panko,

    put in 350f oil,

    take out when brown,

    if not at 165f, finish in the oven.

    no recipe. needed fam.

    If you’re using chicken breast, I recommend tenderizing it with a meat mallet so the breast isn’t thicker than a half inch. These cook stupid quick and always come out perfect. I make em now out of seitan but they taste close enough for me and i can fool people if its in a sandwich.
