Nashville Hot Chicken

 

Nashville Hot Chicken starts with fried chicken that's been marinated to ensure it's juicy inside. After frying, it's coated in a spicy paste made from hot sauce and cayenne pepper, giving it a bold and spicy flavor. It's traditionally served on white bread with pickles on top, which helps balance the heat. The combination of crispy, spicy chicken, soft bread, and tangy pickles creates a mouthwatering experience that's hard to resist. 🍗

Ingredients:

• 200g of chicken breast
• 50g of all-purpose flour
• 30g of cornstarch
• 1 tsp of cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp of paprika
• 1/2 tsp of garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp of onion powder

Instructions:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to create a spice mix.
