Answers to Your Questions
Q: What is the secret to achieving extra crispy fried chicken?
A: The key to extra crispy fried chicken lies in the double-frying technique. Fry your chicken once at a lower temperature (325°F) to cook it through, then fry it again at a higher temperature (375°F) to create a shatteringly crisp exterior.
Q: How do I prevent my fried chicken from becoming greasy?
A: To avoid greasy fried chicken, allow it to rest on paper towels or a wire rack after frying. This allows excess oil to drain off, resulting in a crispy, non-greasy masterpiece.
Q: Can I substitute buttermilk for yogurt in the marinade?
A: Yes, you can substitute buttermilk for yogurt in the marinade. Yogurt provides a similar tenderizing effect and imparts a slightly tangy flavor to your fried chicken.
