    Delicious! There are some errors on the execution portion of this recipe. The corrections are common sense, but I just wanted to write the out. When Paula made this on her show, she 1 1 combined the cornstarch and house seasoning with the flour
    2 she put the chicken in the buttermilk mixture first, then the flour mixture then to the fryer.
    The taste is delicious and the chicken is really moist and flavorful. I did not make the biscone, will try next time.

    I have made this chicken recipe several times, however, I am a bit of a calorie counter don't hate on me I still ate the original recipe before changing it. Instead of frying it I took it out of the brine after about 6 hours and sprinkled with some cajun seasoning and grilled it instead and OMG I thought I was going to heaven for about 25% of the calories and almost none of the fat. Also tried the biscones instead of biscuits for sausage gravy and with a bit more kick with country fried steak gravy and sausage instead of white, it rocked. Enjoy.

    This is a fantastic sandwich!! I fixed this for 3 college aged relatives (one of which was my son, and they raved and raved over it. My son has eaten a lot of great food in his life, and he exclaimed that he thought it was the best sandwich he'd ever eaten! Most definitely a KEEPER!
    THANKS SO MUCH!

    Confused! Just watched and then read the recipe. It appears in writing to put in buttermilk last, which doesn't make sense. On the show, I believe she dipped it in buttermilk first, then the flour mix. Also, she tried it once double dipping, then decided on dip was enough but I believe she did the order of wet then dry. So...confused with the written instructions....all the folks who tried and loved it..did you put it in buttermilk last??

    Absolutely delicious! I make the biscones to serve with other meals. I have added a little garlic to change them up some. Easy to make and simply loved by the family.

    We just had this for Easter Supper. The subtle sweet tea and lemon taste in the chicken was excellent. We will definitely have this again.

    The only problem I ran into was that my biscones were too small to make sandwiches. The chicken pieces I had were pretty large and I had to pound them with a mallet. So we had fried chicken with biscones and green beans :

    OMG soooo good I saw the episode and just had to try this out :]
    I skipped the whole brine/marinade process
    But the chicken turned out really good even without it
    Made a tasty sandwich and love the biscones just by themselves

    I made this recipe after I watched the episode. This is absolutely the best fried chicken I've ever had! I will be hosting a dinner party soon and this will be the menu. I didn't make a sandwich out of the chicken, I made mashed potates to go along with the chicken and biscone.
