Instructions:

1. Marinate the chicken: Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
2. Prepare the coating: In a large bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.
3. Coat the chicken: Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring it is well coated. Shake off any excess flour.

6. Drain and serve: Remove the chicken from the oil and place it on a wire rack or paper towels to drain any excess oil. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
