Take the chicken and carefully add it into the hot oil. Making sure its hot enough to make it quick and east to cook, make sure to flip the chicken around as well, this helps it cook evenly and ensure all the sides are nicely cooked and tender. Take them out once it reaches a nice golden color, some even try to poke the chicken with a fork or toothpick to check once its cooked in the inside, poking it will bring out the juices, it should come out clear and not pink. Take them out off the hot oil and place over a paper tower or rack to remove any leftover juices. Serve warm with a side of fries and gravy.
