Obviously, I made this for my daughter via the chicken tenders. This reciped would be the same for breast, thighs, legs and wings. You can fry food in a deep frier or using less oil in a cast iron pan. This is a good starting point for any fried chicken. I am constantly trying different vartions. The important point in the buttermilk marinade for the chicken. Breading options can vary drastically. Give it a try and hope you enjoy.

Chicken:

- you can coat in flour a second time if you like but let sit before cooking
- cook chicken at 325-350 degree oil until done ( Golden Brown) (darker brown will be crunchier but don't burn)
- You can make this without the corn flour as well as substitute 1/4 C corn or potato starch for the corn meal. This will give you a crispier crust.
