- Finally, give the chicken one more coat of the flour mixture, dusting off any extra coating.
- Fry Chicken:
- Heat a medium-sized heavy pan over medium flame and pour in the extra virgin olive oil. Let it heat for about 8-10 minutes until itโs hot and ready for deep frying.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully add the coated chicken pieces. Fry, turning every 2 minutes, until theyโre golden brown and crispy.
- Once done, remove the chicken and place it on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
