Nothing beats some crispy buttermilk fried chicken in the summer. I mention the summer because I only drink lemonade during the summer and lemonade and fried chicken go hand in hand. I can think of so many things to pair up some fried chicken with…macaroni salad, mac and cheese, French fries, etc.
I love to soak fried chicken in hot sauce or honey mustard! This recipe is perfect for those of you who like well-seasoned food. This crispy chicken isn’t only crispy and tender, it’s also very flavorful.
