Popeyes Copycat Fried Chicken

 In a large bowl, soak chicken pieces in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best results.

 In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.

 Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F (175°C).

 Dredge each chicken piece in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.

 Carefully place chicken in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the fryer.

 Fry chicken for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking.
