Fry Chicken
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Fry chicken in batches for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
