Safety tips for deep frying chicken
Every great meal starts with not burning down the house.
Who could possibly disagree with that premise?
After all, no one’s fried chicken is literally to die for.
Moyer says that the first rule of frying without dying is: “Never leave a fryer unattended.”
When you turn on the fryer, set it for between 325 and 350 degrees.
Any less, and your food won’t cook properly.
Any more, and you’re risking a kitchen fire.
When the time comes to add the chicken to the hot oil, don’t crowd the basket!
First of all, you’ll need to choose the right coating.
If you’re reheating a fully cooked product, it should get to 140-145 degrees.
Let the basket drain, lightly shaking it to remove any extra oil.
