Method

  1. Cut the whole capons into 4 breasts, 4 thighs, 4 legs and 4 wings and set aside. Preheat your oil in a heavy pan or a deep-fryer.
  2. Using a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, Cayenne pepper and set aside.
  3. Pour the buttermilk into another large bowl. Take your breasts, lightly dust them with your flour mixture, then dip them in the buttermilk and place them in the flour mixture, making sure that the chicken is thoroughly coated for it to be crunchy.
