Notes
Use a heavy-bottomed pan or Dutch oven with tall sides to fit several inches of oil but isn’t too wide.
Heat your oil to 350°F before carefully adding each piece of chicken.
Fry until golden brown on both sides before removing from the hot oil and setting on a paper towel-lined plate.
Coat the chicken pieces well with the sauce.
