### **The Secret to Nana’s Perfectly Crispy Fried Chicken:**
**The key ingredient?** **Cornstarch.**
Yes, you read that right! Nana’s one secret to perfectly crispy fried chicken is to add **cornstarch** to the breading mix.

It also helps create a beautifully light texture on the outside while keeping the meat juicy and tender on the inside.
If you’ve ever wondered why your fried chicken wasn’t crispy enough, even though you followed the recipe to a T, this could be the missing ingredient you’ve been overlooking.
### **Ingredients:**
– **4-6 chicken pieces** (drumsticks, thighs, or breasts—your choice!)
– **1 cup all-purpose flour**
– **1/2 cup cornstarch**
– **1 teaspoon salt**
– **1 teaspoon black pepper**
– **1 teaspoon garlic powder** (optional, but it adds a lovely flavor)
– **1 teaspoon paprika** (for a bit of smoky color)
– **1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper** (for a kick of heat, optional)
– **1-2 cups buttermilk** (for marinating the chicken)
– **Vegetable oil** (for frying)
