step by step

Method

  1. Pound the chicken

    • Pound the chicken thighs until thin so they cook evenly.
    Step 1

  2. Marinate the chicken

    • Place the chicken in a bowl with the buttermilk, pickle juice and buffalo wing sauce.
    • Mix well, cover and let marinate for a couple of hours.
    Step 2

  3. Make the seasoned flour

    • In a large bowl, whisk the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, turmeric, dry mustard and dried thyme until combined.
    Step 3

  4. Coat the chicken

    • Drain the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off.
    • Press each piece firmly into the flour mixture, flipping a few times so the coating sticks.
    • Shake off the excess and set the pieces on a tray.
    • Let them rest so the crust forms.
    Step 4

  5. First fry

    • Heat the oil to 325 °F and fry the chicken until cooked through and the first crust forms.
    • Remove and drain.
    Step 5

  6. Second fry

    • Raise the oil to 375 °F and fry the chicken a second time until deeply crispy.
    • Drain on a rack.
    Step 6

  7. Build the bowls

    • Spoon the mashed potatoes into bowls.
    • Top with the warm country gravy, shredded cheddar and crumbled bacon.
    • Slice the fried chicken and place it on top.
    • Finish with chopped chives and serve.
