Notes

  • Don’t crowd the fryer. Crisp needs space. Fry in batches if needed.
  • Season while hot if you want extra punch.
  • Let the oil come back to temp between batches—discipline makes crunch.
  • The seasoning and fried chicken cooking appoach works for other pieces of chicken as well. Cooking times may vay a little bit though.
  • I pefer peanut oil for high smoke point temerature, clean taste, and reusability
