- Start to heat oil in a deep pot on the stove over medium high heat until it reaches a steady 350-360 degrees F.
- Add flour and seasonings into a shallow bowl, in another bowl whisk together buttermilk and eggs.
- Blot meat with paper towels. Dip into flour mixture on both sides, dip into egg mixture, then back into the flour mixture to coat well. Set on to baking sheet until all piece are coated. (for a lighter coating dip into egg mix first and then flour only)
- Use tongs to set into hot oil, only a few so they don't overlap or crowd each other for 5 minutes submerged in deep fryer or Dutch Oven or 2-3 minutes on each side if pan fried and needs to be flipped.
