A legendary Southern-style fried chicken, perfected with a blend of homegrown herbs and spices, a rich buttermilk marinade, and a crispy cornmeal coating.
In a large bowl, marinate the chicken pieces in buttermilk for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper, and the herb and spice blend.
Heat vegetable oil in a cast-iron skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Dredge the marinated chicken pieces in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.
Carefully place the coated chicken pieces in the hot oil, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes depending on the size of the pieces.
Remove the chicken and place on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite sides and enjoy the Southern magic!
