4 servings

  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh tarragon
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh sage
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, halved
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups grapeseed oil for frying
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup quick-mixing flour (such as Wondra®)
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 pinch salt and ground white pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Whisk buttermilk, onion powder, parsley, tarragon, sage, paprika, and 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper in a bowl. Place chicken breast pieces in buttermilk mixture, stir to coat, and marinate in refrigerator at least 8 hours (up to 2 days). Drain chicken pieces in a colander.
  • Mix 2 cups all-purpose flour, garlic salt, onion salt, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a heavy, resealable plastic bag. Whisk eggs with 2 tablespoons milk in a bowl; season with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat grapeseed oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat until a pinch of flour dropped into the oil sizzles. Place 1/2 cup all-purpose flour into a shallow bowl.
  • Press chicken pieces into unseasoned flour, dip into egg mixture, and place into plastic bag of seasoned flour. Close bag and shake to coat chicken.
  • Fry coated chicken in hot oil until golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes on the first side and 6 to 8 minutes on the second side. Drain on a rack.
  • Drain oil, leaving 1/4 cup oil in skillet. Reduce heat to medium. Whisk quick-mixing flour and milk into hot oil until combined. Bring gravy to a simmer and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened and creamy, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and white pepper. Serve gravy with fried chicken.
