Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine all the brine ingredients.
- If you are using chicken legs, separate the drums from the thighs so that it becomes 8 pieces of chicken.
- Add the chicken to the brine and let it sit for a minimum of 4 hours in the fridge Bring it out of the fridge 1 hour before you are ready to deep fry so that the chicken can come to room temperature. This will help the chicken cook all the way through and it prevents the oil from dropping to a very low temperature when you deep fry it.
- In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients of the "Dry Mix" from the ingredient list. Reserve 1/2 cup of it aside to make the "Wet Mix" and set the rest aside for later.
- (Optional) If you want a more textured crispy batter, add 2-3 tablespoons of the brine or water into the 'dry mix' and work it into the mix with your fingers until you get a slightly clumpier and moist dry mix.
- Add the reserved 1/2 cup of dry mix into another bowl and add in the white vinegar and ice water and mix well until everything is combined. Set this aside
- When you are ready to batter the chicken, remove it from the brine and dry it out VERY WELL with paper towel
- One at a time put the chicken into the dry mix and coat it with a light dusting. Shake very well. You want a very light coating for the initial flouring only.
- Use a fork to re-mix the wet batter (it may have settled and separated)
- Dunk one piece of chicken quickly into the wet batter
- Quickly add the wet chicken piece back into the "Dry Mix" and completely cover the chicken in the mix.
- Use your hand and press the dry mix into the chicken. I like to give it a solid squeeze.
- Remove the chicken from the dry mix and vigorously shake off the flour to create the nooks and crannies.
- Remove the chicken from the dry mix and set it in a single layer on a plate.
- Do this for every piece of chicken.
- Fill a cast iron pan or deep fryer with oil and set the temperature to 350F (177C)
- Once the oil is hot (you can do a test if it's hot enough by sticking a wooden chopstick or wooden spoon into it to see if it bubbles) add in the chicken slowly. Do not overcrowd the pan, you don't want the oil temperature to drop. You may need to cook this in a few batches. I like to put about 2 pieces in per dutch oven.
- Cook the chicken for 18-20 minutes. (If you are using boneless chicken, cook it for 6-10 minutes instead)
- Once all the chicken has been fried, put it back in the oil and fry it for a second time for 1 minute. This will make the chicken extra crispy.
- Let it rest on a rack, newspaper or parchment paper for a few minutes before digging in. Enjoy!

THE CRISPIEST FRIED CHICKEN RECIPE BY TASTY
We tested dozens of different methods to fried chicken and we finally found what we think is the crispiest and juiciest version. The first step is to dry brine the chicken, which is a fancy way of saying to season it overnight. This process actually helps the meat retain its moisture while frying, making it extra juicy. The next step is the double-dredge method where you dip the chicken in seasoned flour, then in buttermilk, then back in the flour before frying to get those extra crackly bits. Let us know what you think!

Steps:
- Dry brine the chicken: In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and lemon zest.
- Pat the chicken pieces dry with a paper towel and season with the salt mixture, evenly coating each piece.
- Line a large resealable container with paper towels and add the seasoned chicken. Refrigerate uncovered for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- 30 minutes before frying, remove the chicken from the refrigerator to bring to room temperature.
- Add the canola oil to a large Dutch oven and heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). Place a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet and set nearby.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg whites, and vodka.
- Working with one piece at a time, coat the dry-brined chicken in the flour mixture, then in the buttermilk mixture, then again in the flour, shaking off any excess.
- Add 2-3 pieces of chicken to the hot oil and fry for 7-10 minutes, flipping once, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the exterior is golden brown and crispy. Remove from oil, transfer to the wire rack, and season with salt. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
- Enjoy!
