Ingredients - Serves 4

In a bowl, combine the buttermilk and half of the hot sauce. Add the chicken breasts and let marinate for at least 1 hour.
In another bowl, combine the flour, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and dredge in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Fry the chicken in the hot oil until golden and crispy, about 5 minutes per side.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining hot sauce with a tablespoon of the frying oil to make the Nashville hot sauce.
Brush the cooked chicken with the Nashville hot sauce.
Serve the chicken on the buns with pickles and coleslaw.
