Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl whisk together the sour cream and hot sauce.

3. 3

   Heat the vegetable oil in a large high-walled skillet over high heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C).

4. 4

   Set aside 1 teaspoon of the buffalo seasoning mix, then add the rest to a large bowl with the flour and whisk to combine.

5. 5

   Remove the chicken from the marinate and coat in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

6. 6

   Fry the chicken, 2 thighs at a time, in the hot oil, flipping frequently to ensure even cooking, for about 15 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

7. 7

   Season the chicken with reserved buffalo wing seasoning.

8. 8

   Serve and enjoy!
