Steps:

• Cut the chicken into breast, thigh, leg, and wing pieces.
• In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour and all of the seasonings.
• In a large bowl, add buttermilk and beaten egg. Stir or whisk to combine.
• Add the chicken pieces to the buttermilk mixture.
• Soak the chicken for about 30 minutes.
• Place a wire rack on top of a baking sheet.
• To bread the chicken, remove the chicken from the buttermilk and shake off excess.
• Place each piece into the flour mixture.
• Coat the chicken fully and then shake off all of the excess flour.
• Place the chicken onto the wire rack.
• Bread all of the chicken. The breaded chicken should rest for about 15 minutes before frying.
• Heat oil to 350 degrees in a deep fryer. If you do not have a deep fryer you should use a Dutch oven and fill it half full of vegetable shortening. If you are using a Dutch oven, use a thermometer to make sure the temperature is maintained at 350 degrees. If the temperature drops too low, the breading will become greasy.
• Cook the chicken in 2 or 3 batches. The breasts and thighs will take about 15 to 18 minutes to cook. The wings and legs will take about 12 to 13 minutes to cook.
• Drain the fried chicken on a clean wire rack on top of a baking sheet.
