Critical Success Points

  • Ensure chicken is fully submerged in the pickle brine for even marination.
  • Maintain oil temperature between 170‑175 °C throughout frying.
  • Check internal temperature of chicken reaches at least 73 °C.
  • Double‑coat the chicken for maximum crunch.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can cause severe burns – use long tongs and keep a lid nearby.
  • Never leave the fryer unattended.
  • Handle the probe thermometer with care to avoid puncturing the chicken and contaminating the oil.
