For the Chicken:

- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika

Marinate the chicken: In a large bowl, combine buttermilk and chicken thighs. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for deeper flavor.

Dredge and fry: Dip each chicken thigh into the beaten egg, then thoroughly coat in the flour mixture. Carefully lower the chicken pieces into the hot oil and fry for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to the prepared plate to drain.

Assemble and serve: Arrange the fried chicken on a platter. Top each piece with a generous dollop of crème fraîche or sour cream. Carefully spoon your chosen premium caviar over the crème fraîche, forming a small mound. Garnish with fresh dill sprigs and lemon wedges.
