Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, paprika, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, basil, thyme, celery salt, mustard, white pepper, black pepper, and salt to make the seasoned flour.

Soak the chicken pieces in the buttermilk for at least 30 minutes.

Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F (175°C).

Remove each piece of chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess liquid drip off.

Drop the chicken into the seasoned flour mixture until well coated.

Fry the chicken in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).

Drain the fried chicken on paper towels to remove excess oil.
