I got plenty of fried chicken experience. A chicken shaman.

That pan giving me anxiety. You’ll want to use a dutch oven, a deeper pan, or just use less oil next time.

What oil you using? It’s going to have an effect on how quickly your breading is going to burn. I use peanut oil.

Oil temp is key and is something you’ll get a feel for after a couple of temps. You’ll want to test the oil temp with a piece of breading or a small piece of chicken before throwing the rest in. Don’t want to ruin a whole batch.

Also might want to consider a different breading recipe. Thicker batter breading doesn’t always work in shallow because the breaded side touching the bottom can start to burn well before they chicken is done.

350 degrees is what you want to aim for.

I don’t use a thermometer or anything, so I do it based off feel, but that’s something you’ll get comfortable with over time.

Cook time is going to depend on the size of each piece and how many you’re putting in the pot at once. You want it in long enough to cook the chicken through without drying it out. We looking for golden brown. It’ll darken a little once you pull it out of the oil.

I also suggest using peanut oil because it’s a very neutral oil that doesn’t change the flavor or the chicken or breading. It’s a small difference but you’ll taste the flavor of the oil more-so if you use canola or vegetable oil.

fam but on a more serious note..

I don’t brine. I get why people do, but personally I don’t think it necessarily makes the chicken taste any better.

My whole breading process is secret, but without giving away too much I go flour > buttermilk > flour > fryer

(Eggs in the buttermilk? And keep it simple w the flour seasoning or add more spices n s***? )

That part is the chef’s decision.

It’s up to you to figure out your perfect chicken

The trial and error will make you a better cook

That’s the joy of cooking at home
