  • Heat oil for frying to 365°F.

  • Fry 2 to 3 pieces at a time for 2 to 3 minutes or until golden, turning only once.
  • Carefully remove and drain on paper towels, or paper bag.
  • Keep warm while frying the remaining chicken.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The cornmeal batter was flavorful and gave the chicken a nice golden-brown color.
