- • Coating the chicken thoroughly with the flour mixture, pressing into crevices.
- • Maintaining oil temperature at 350°F throughout frying.
- • Draining fried chicken on a wire rack to keep it crisp.
Safety Warnings
- • Hot oil can cause severe burns – use a thermometer and never leave unattended.
- • Do not overfill the pot; oil may spill and ignite.
- • Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (73°C) to avoid foodborne illness.
