1. Pour the buttermilk into a large bowl and whisk in the eggs. Place the chicken in the liquid and marinate for 30 mins - 12 hours.

2. Pour the flour in a large baking tray and season with the salt, and all the herbs and spices.

3. In a large deep pan, heat oil to 180C, then preheat oven to 200C.

4. Remove chicken from the buttermilk and coat with the seasoned flour, pressing it into it so it's completely covered. Dredge in the buttermilk again and give a second coat of flour. Do 4 at a time.

5. Carefully place the chicken in the large pan, cooking up to 4 pieces at a time, for 12 minutes. Repeat with the remaining chicken.

6. Place in the oven for 10-15 minutes until the chicken has an internal temperature of 74C.

7. Remove from the oven, rest the chicken for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
