Crispy Buttermilk Fried Chicken Thighs
Pan-seared chicken thighs marinated in tangy buttermilk and coated in a light, spiced flour for a satisfyingly golden and crunchy finish.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz boneless skinless chicken thighs
2 tbsp low-fat buttermilk
1 tbsp whole wheat flour
0.5 tbsp avocado oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp smoked paprika
0.5 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder until well combined.
Add the chicken thighs to the buttermilk mixture, ensuring they are fully submerged, and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Place the whole wheat flour on a shallow plate and dredge each marinated thigh in the flour until lightly and evenly coated.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering and hot.
Carefully place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Transfer the chicken to a wire rack or plate and let it rest for 3 minutes before serving to maintain its juicy texture.
