This foolproof buttermilk brined fried chicken is part of my soulful sunday series — celebrating everything black & delicious.

I’ve tested this recipe over 5 times to ensure cook times & temperatures would provide you with the best end result: succulent, flavorful & crispy chicken. Included in the video is a bite-sized history lesson detailing the origins of fried chicken in the African American community. Tune in before you whip it up.
