- Use chicken thighs for a juicier result that won’t dry out.
- Marinate for at least 1 hour for deeper flavor absorption. If possible, let it rest overnight in the fridge.
- Avoid flipping the chicken too often while frying to maintain crispiness.
- Use enough oil with stable heat so the chicken cooks evenly and doesn’t absorb too much oil.
