• Grab a bowl and pour in your buttermilk, egg, hot sauce, and pickle juice. Give it a good whisk until all the ingredients are well blended.
  1 cup Buttermilk, 2 tablespoons Hot Sauce, 1/2 Cup Pickle Juice, 1 Egg
• Take your chicken and gently place it into the buttermilk mixture, making sure each piece is coated nicely.
  4to 6 Chicken Tenders
• In a separate large bowl, combine flour, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder to create a flavorful flour mixture.
  2 Cups All Purpose Flour, 1 Teaspoon Salt, 1/2 Teaspoon Pepper, 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder, 1 Teaspoon Onion Powder
• Take the chicken out of the buttermilk mixture and coat each piece in the flour mixture. Make sure every part of the chicken is nicely coated in flour. You can place the coated chicken on a wire rack or a dish for about 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the coating to adhere.
• If you have a deep fryer, heat it up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If not, you can use a large skillet and fill it with enough oil to fry the chicken.
• Carefully add the coated chicken into the fryer or skillet and let it cook until it turns a beautiful golden brown color. You can also check the internal temperature of the chicken using a meat thermometer, making sure it reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it's fully cooked.
  3 Cups Vegetable oil
• Once the chicken is cooked to perfection, take it out of the fryer or skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.

Spicy Sauce/ Dipping Sauce

• Heat a small skillet over medium heat and combine butter, honey, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, and brown sugar in it. Stir the mixture until it becomes hot and well blended. Once ready, drizzle this delectable sauce over your regular fried chicken. For a delightful serving, place the saucy fried chicken on white bread. Indulge in this delicious combination and relish the flavors!
