Preparation

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Combine the spice mixture and chicken pieces in a plastic zip bag and toss to coat and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat 1/2-inch of Peanut Oil in a cast iron skillet to 360F.

Lightly beat the eggs and combine with the buttermilk and water in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, add the flour, cornstarch and then season with salt and pepper. Dip each piece into the buttermilk mixture and then coat in flour. Fry pieces until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove to a wire rack to drain excess oil, then serve.

In a small bowl, combine the honey and Sriracha. Stir well and refrigerate until ready to fry the chicken.
