1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil for frying
French bread or baguette
Lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles for dressing
Mayonnaise or spicy aioli for spreading
Cut the chicken breasts into thin, even slices.
Place the chicken slices in a bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Remove the chicken slices from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off. Dredge them in the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Fry the chicken slices in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Slice the French bread or baguette lengthwise and spread mayonnaise or spicy aioli on both sides. Layer the fried chicken onto the bread and dress with lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles.
Cut the po'boy into individual servingsand relish the delightful flavors of the classic fried chicken po'boy.
