Cooking Instructions
1.
Open bag of Frozen Tater Tots (1 pckg). Lay them on a baking sheet and let them thaw for about thirty minutes or until only partially frozen.
2.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
3.
In a large bowl, mix Buttermilk (2 cups), Eggland's Best Classic Egg (1), Tabasco® Original Red Pepper Sauce (1 tsp), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Place Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs (1.5 lb) into the bowl and let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes.

In another bowl, combine All-Purpose Flour (2 1/2 cups), Cayenne Pepper (1/4 tsp), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste).
5.
Add the Vegetable Oil (3 Tbsp) to a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Heat to medium-high. Take a chicken and dredge it into the flour shaking off any extras. Place chicken in skillet and repeat. Cook chicken for about 5 minutes on first side.
