How to use this list
Begin by checking flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, brown sugar, and frying oil.

Marinate the thighs with buttermilk and hot sauce, prepare the flour and cornstarch coating, then reserve the oil, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, and brown sugar for the hot finish.
Common mistakes
Do not substitute chicken breasts without changing the plan; this list is sized around small chicken thighs. Do not brush every piece with the same chile oil before checking the cayenne level. Skip extra sandwich fillings not listed here if you want the straightforward bun, fried chicken, and pickle setup.
What is on this list
The shopping list calls for 8 small chicken thighs, 2 cups of buttermilk, 2 tablespoons of hot sauce, 2 cups of flour, and 1/2 cup of cornstarch. You will also need sweet paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, light brown sugar, 3 cups of neutral frying oil, four brioche buns, and 1 cup of dill pickle chips. Cross off spices and oil you already have.
Before you go
Plan for four sandwiches, not eight: the eight thighs make two pieces per sandwich. Confirm you have a safe setup for frying before buying the 3 cups of neutral oil, and keep the chicken cold until preparation.
