Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Rinse the chicken pieces under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place the chicken in a large bowl and sprinkle with salt, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- 2
Heat the Oil
In a large, deep frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. You need enough oil to submerge the chicken pieces halfway.
- 3
Fry the Chicken
Once the oil is hot (about 180°C/350°F), carefully add the marinated chicken pieces to the pan. Fry in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 12-15 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
