2.5 ml (½ tsp) allspice
8 chicken drumsticks with bone and skin
8 thighs with bone and skin
Breading
450 g (3 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour
7.5 ml (1 ½ tsp) mild smoked paprika
7.5 ml (1 ½ tsp) cayenne pepper
7.5 ml (1 ½ tsp) garlic powder
7.5 ml (1 ½ tsp) powdered mustard

Preparation
Marinade
In a bowl, mix the buttermilk, salt and spices. Add the chicken and coat well. Covering and refrigerate 12 h.
Breading
In a large bowl, combine the flour, spices and salt.
Preheat the oil in the fryer to 165°C (325°F). Line a baking sheet with paper towel.
Remove the chicken from the marinade without drying it too much. Coat chicken in the flour mix. Dip a second time in the marinade and coat it again in the flour mixture. Shake to remove excess. Reserve on a baking sheet.
Fry four to five pieces at a time for 15 minutes. Watch out for splashes. If you are using a thermometer, it should read 82°C (180°F) when inserted into the center of a piece without touching the bone. Drain on the plate. Continue cooking with the rest of the chicken.
Spicy mayonnaise
Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine all the ingredients. Serve with fried chicken.
Enjoy !
