Crispy Chicken Breasts

This recipe i made after i cooked and tasted the fried chicken recipe (id #63339) from zaar chef ellie. I like crispy chicken and that is how this turned out. It does require a lot of standing time, so it is a dish you will have to plan for time wise. Nice served with a salad. Prep time does not include the standing times.

Steps

Flatten the chicken breasts between parchment paper or between plastic sheets.
Mix the buttermilk with the hot sauce and the garlic , put the chicken covered in the buttermilk mixture in a non-metallic dish , marinate for at least two hours turning them over once.
Mix the flour , cornmeal , cornstarch and seasoning in a shallow dish , take the chicken out of the marinade , let the buttermilk drip off , coat in the flour , coat the other breast then repeat the coating again starting with the first one.
If you still see wet parts on the breasts , coat again.
Put the chicken back in the fridge for at least half an hour.
Discard the marinade.
Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan until it is pretty hot.
Fry the breasts until golden brown on both sides , lower the temperature and fry them until they are done , approx 10 minutes in total depending on the thickness of the breasts.
