Ingredients
- 4 chicken drumsticks
- 4 chicken thighs
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 300ml buttermilk

- 2 tsp worcestershire sauce

Recipe tips / Prepare ahead
Allow 30 mins for marinating.
Method
Step 1
Pierce the chicken skin with a fork to speed up the marinating process.
Step 2
For the marinade, mix the buttermilk, Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt and cayenne pepper in a large bowl and coat the chicken pieces fully. Cover with cling film and pop in the fridge for 30 mins.
Step 3
For the crust, mix the plain flour, celery salt, cayenne pepper and black pepper in a bowl.
Step 4
Warm a deep frying pan and add half an inch of vegetable oil to shallow fry.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. Take the marinated chicken and dip into the crust mixture piece by piece. Coat it well and don’t worry, any lumps will make a thick crispy crust!
Step 6
Fry the chicken in batches, about 2 mins each side, until crispy and golden, then place on a tray lined with baking paper. To finish cooking place the tray in the oven for 10-15 min.
Step 7
Sprinkle extra salt and a squeeze of lemon juice to serve.
