Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces and sides like coleslaw or mashed potatoes.

Leftover chicken can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness.

Variations:

Add paprika, cayenne pepper, or dried herbs to the flour mix for extra flavor and heat.

Substitute evaporated milk with buttermilk for a tangier taste and tender texture.

Use skinless chicken if preferred, though the skin adds to the crispiness.

FAQ:
Can I bake this chicken instead of frying?
Yes, bake at 200°C (400°F) for 30-40 minutes, turning halfway through, but frying gives a crispier crust.

What oil is best for frying chicken?
Use oils with high smoke points such as vegetable, peanut, or canola oil.

How do I know when the chicken is cooked through?
Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F), or cut into the thickest part to ensure juices run clear.
