Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup buffalo sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
Cut the boneless, skinless chicken thighs into 1-inch pieces to mimic the size of boneless chicken wings.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and whisk in the milk to create an egg wash.
Dip each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, then in the egg wash, and return to the flour mixture to give it a thick coating. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the chicken pieces in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan, for about 4-5 minutes per batch or until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
Transfer the fried chicken to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then stir in the buffalo sauce. Heat until just warmed through.
Place the fried chicken in a large mixing bowl and pour the warm buffalo sauce over the top. Toss to coat evenly.
Serve immediately with ranch or blue cheese dressing and celery sticks if desired.
