Techniques
  • chicken breasts
Pound the chicken breast fairly thin in a ziplock bag (oil optional) and cut out a smaller piece.
Pounding and cutting the chicken
  • buttermilk
  • chalula
Mix buttermilk and Cholula in a container; add the chicken and refrigerate until frying.

  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
Mix the cold flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • 1 cup Canadian-aged white cheddar
  • 1 stick frozen butter
Grate in the cheddar, then grate in the frozen butter and break everything up quickly so it stays cold.
  • 1 cup cold buttermilk
Make a well, pour in the cold buttermilk and mix to a messy, shaggy clump without overworking.
  • flour
Form into a rectangle about an inch tall; cut in half with the bench scraper, stack, flatten back to an inch, and repeat three times to build layers.
Stacking for layers and cutting
Cut straight down with a floured cutter without turning it; cut six.
