Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken thighs bone-in, skin-on
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • In a large, shallow bowl, mix together the flour, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
  • Dip each chicken thigh into the buttermilk, then dredge in the flour mixture, making sure to coat evenly.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Place the coated chicken thighs in the hot oil, skin side down. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
