Rosemary Brined Buttermilk Fried Chicken

(6)
"Rosemary brined buttermilk fried #chicken, by Michael @ruhlman. Seriously, the best fried chicken I've ever had. The chicken is incredibly moist, tender, and flavorful from resting overnight in a salty brine made with onions, rosemary, lemon. The crust is so perfectly flakey, with spicy hints of cayenne and paprika. The pieces get finished with salt, lemon zest, and fried rosemary. This must make recipe from Genius Recipes, by Kristen Miglore, is the type of chicken that causes your eyes to roll back with delight. This is for my #rainydaybitescookbookclub"

Recipe Intro From rainydaybites

This is as close to fried chicken perfection as it gets. The brine is key here. If you keep kosher, try a standard salt and water brine.
