I am sorry to ask you ladies and gentlemen this but you are the best folks I know to turn to. My dad loves fried chicken, and I can't fry it. I have tried and tried, since my mother died to fry chicken and it just doesn't taste cook, either all my crust comes off or I burn it or it is soggy. Could/Would someone please tell me how to fry chicken. Every time I fix baked chicken he says this is OK but would be better if it were fried. This is the only food he has asked for that, I can't fix, since Mother left us, now I can't fry fish either but he doesn't ask for it. I can fry pork chops to suit him most of the time. I do not like fried foods, I know it isn't healthy, but hey he is almost 85 years old and his cholesterol is good and he is in fine shape except for his memory. At least twice a week I hear, would you please fry some chicken and it is breaking my heart that I can't get it right.
Help please. I would say lets do it in a chocolate batter but that doesn't sound good to me, for sure, but then it would be kind of on topic.
Thanks in advance,
