Instructions:

1. Marinate the Chicken:

  • Place the chicken breasts in a bowl and cover them with buttermilk. Allow them to marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator.

2. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:

  • Boil the diced potatoes until tender. Drain and mash them with butter, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.

3. Fry the Chicken:

  • In a large bowl, mix the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, pressing it onto the surface.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and let them rest on a paper towel-lined plate.

4. Make the Gravy:

  • In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to create a roux. Cook for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned.
  • Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring no lumps form. Simmer until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
