Notes:
- Oil Tip: Make sure the oil stays at a consistent temperature. If it’s too hot, the chicken may burn on the outside before cooking through, and if it’s too cool, the chicken will absorb too much oil and become greasy. A thermometer can help you monitor the temperature.
- Flavor Variations: If you prefer a spicier kick, you can add cayenne pepper or paprika to the flour mixture. For a different flavor profile, try using buttermilk instead of evaporated milk.
- Storage: Leftover fried chicken can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) to restore the crispy coating. You can also freeze the chicken for up to a month, reheating it in the oven to maintain its crispness.
