• Whisk the flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl. Drizzle in 1/3 cup milk and whisk to form small shaggy clumps. Whisk the remaining 1/2 cup milk, the eggs and hot sauce in another large bowl. Coat each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture, letting the excess drip off. Return the chicken to the flour mixture and turn until well coated. Transfer to a rack set on a baking sheet and let sit, uncovered, to set the coating, 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fill a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot with 2 to 3 inches of vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Carefully add 4 to 5 pieces chicken to the hot oil. The oil temperature will drop; adjust the heat as needed to maintain a temperature between 300 degrees F and 325 degrees F. Fry the chicken until golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the breasts registers 160 degrees F and the thighs 170 degrees F, 10 to 14 minutes. Remove with tongs and transfer to a clean rack set on a baking sheet; sprinkle with salt. Let the oil temperature return to 350 degrees F before frying the remaining chicken.

For spicier chicken, top with more of the spicy butter.

Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Cook 25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water has evaporated. (If liquid remains after the rice is done, drain it in a sieve.)
