- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2.5 cups flour, 2 tablespoons baking powder, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 0.5 teaspoon salt.
Cut in 0.75 cup unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Slowly add 1 cup of buttermilk into the flour mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently 3-4 times.
Roll the dough until it's about 1/2 inch thick.
Cut the dough into biscuit shapes using a cutter, and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
While biscuits are baking, slice the 2 pounds of chicken breasts into sandwich-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon salt, 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder, and 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
Season chicken pieces with the spice mixture.
Dredge chicken pieces in 1 cup flour.
In another bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and 0.25 cup milk.
Dip the flour-coated chicken into the egg mixture.
Heat 2 cups vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Fry chicken pieces for 6-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Slice the baked biscuits in half, and assemble the sandwich by placing a piece of fried chicken between the biscuit halves.
