Notes from the Test Kitchen:
Spicy, savory and super satisfying, Leah's dish had us at hello! With a name like this, we figured it had to be good... and we sure weren't disappointed. Heat things up and give this chicken a fry.

Ingredients

8 total: chicken thighs and legs
2: eggs
4 c: buttermilk
3 c: kentucky kernel seasoned flour
1 Tbsp: baking powder
1: regular size bottle of veggie oil
: a deep skillet (an iron skillet is preferred or a fry daddy works too!)

How to Make Man Catching Fried Chicken

Step-by-Step

1* If you can't find Kentucky Kernel seasoned flour at the store then you are welcome to use 3 cups of self rising flour seasoned with salt and pepper* (don't worry about adding the baking powder if your using self rising flour.)
I buy my KK seasoning at Walmart but you can always order it online @ Amazon or hodgsonmill.com.
2Wash the chicken and set a side
3In a large bowl beat the eggs.
4Pour the buttermilk into a 9x13 glass baking dish and add the eggs and mix together
5Place the chicken into the buttermilk and egg mixture and let marinate at least an hour. (you can also cover it and let it sit overnight in the fridge)
6Mix the 1TBL baking powder together with the seasoned flour. Roll the chicken pieces one at a time in the flour and place in the skillet or fryer. Put at many pieces in the skillet or fryer that will fit without crowding. Fry until golden brown. If your frying in a skillet then it's 7-8 minutes on each side or in a fry daddy @ 360 degrees for about 15 min.
