Crispy Fried Chicken Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 chicken drumsticks
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

3. Coat the chicken: Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring it's well coated.
