Buttermilk Fried Chicken
Buttermilk-brined chicken dredged and fried to a craggy, deeply seasoned crust.
Method
Season the buttermilk chicken well and bring it to room temperature while you prep the aromatics.
Build the base: cook the onion, garlic, and spices until fragrant and softened.
Add the buttermilk chicken and cook through, letting it take on color and absorb the seasoning.
Rest briefly, adjust salt and acid, and finish with fresh herbs before serving.
