Wash and pat dry chicken with paper towel; place in large flat dish. Pour
buttermilk over chicken; cover, and allow to soak at least 1 hour of
overnight in refrigerator. Combine coating ingredients in double strength
paper bag and shake chicken pieces, one at a time, to coat well. Lay coated
chicken pieces on waxed paper for 15 minutes to allow coating to dry (will
cling better). Meanwhile, pour oil to depth of 1/2" in electric skillet
and heat to 350-360 degrees. Fry chicken, several pieces at a time, for
about 3 minutes on each side. Be careful not to overcrowd. Reduce heat to
325 degrees; cook chicken, turning occasionally, for 25 to 35 minutes or
until juices run clear and chicken is tender. Remove to paper towel-lined
platter.
