Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 8 hours; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 8 hours 30 minutes

Cut the chicken breasts into small pieces. Place them in a large plastic bag. Add the buttermilk, hot sauce, and sugar. Chill in the refrigerator overnight (at least 8 hours). The next day, whisk together the milk and two eggs in a bowl. In another bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, flour, crushed cornflakes, salt, and pepper. Preheat the deep fryer to 175°C (350°F). Remove the chicken pieces from the buttermilk mixture and dip them in the milk-and-egg mixture, then in the breadcrumb mixture. Then dip them again in the milk-and-egg mixture and then in the breadcrumb mixture. Store the pieces on a plate. Once all the chicken pieces are breaded, place them in the deep fryer and fry for about 10 minutes until golden brown. Serve with a dip of your choice and French fries.
