Method

Step 1: Marinate The Chicken

In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and buttermilk. Cover the bowl and let it chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of 30 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare The Coating

In another bowl, mix flour and cornstarch. Take the chicken out of the marinade and coat it thoroughly in the dry mixture.

Step 3: Fry The Chicken

Heat oil in a skillet. Cook the chicken pieces in small groups until they are golden brown and crunchy. Drain on paper towels.

Step 4: Warm The Gravy And Corn

Heat the prepared gravy in a saucepan. Steam the corn kernels until soft.

Step 5: Assemble The Bowl

Place a layer of rice in a bowl. Add corn, fried chicken, pour hot gravy over the top, and sprinkle with shredded cheese.

Notes

Keep any remaining food in sealed containers in the fridge for a maximum of 3 days. Reheat in the microwave, separating the chicken to keep it crispy.
