Flip and fry the other side for 1 minute. The chicken should still be pinkish in the middle. Dish out the chicken onto a clean plate, leaving as much oil in the pan as possible.

The best way to tell if the chicken is done is to take a piece out and cut into it. If it's pink, add another minute to the cooking.
