- Marinate the chicken pieces in the liquid mixture for at least 30 minutes before coating for deeper flavors.
- Always use fresh lemon juice instead of bottled for a fresher taste.
- The Bojangles Cajun-seasoned flour is essential for authentic flavor, but if unavailable, regular flour with additional Cajun seasoning can be a substitute.
- Adjust the Tobasco sauce according to your spice preference.
- Ensure an even coating of the flour mixture for a consistent crispy texture.
