Roll Chicken ln mayo before your coating

Get that grease good and hot before you put the chicken in, sprinkle a pinch of flour in the oil before you add the chicken to make sure it's hot enough. It will bubble right up if it's the right temperature.

Dust with flour dip in egg roll in bread crumbs

Your oil needs to be at 350 degrees and maintained throughout the frying process

Maybe the oil in the pan is not hot enough for the chicken yet I'm a certified chicken fryer

@alice96 this was my thought also.

Gluten free flour makes the best coating for fried chicken and it stays in really good. You can’t tell any difference in the taste. We have several relatives that must eat gluten free, but I use gf flour even when I’m not cooking for them.

I pat mine dry first then dip mine in the batter and then put them in the freezer for about 15 minutes then I dip them in egg then in the batter again and then back in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes and then fry them immediately

There are a lot of fancy ways of doing it, but my mom's fried chicken was simple country cooking and was asked for at every potluck. Pat chicken dry and season, dredge each pc in seasoned flour, then repeat (dredge in the flour again). When the grease is HOT, and by grease I mean Crisco, start adding the chicken, meatier pieces first. Let it crisp golden brown until you turn it and only turn once if possible. In order to cook the sides you will need to have plenty of grease in the pan. We would cover it off and on during the first half of cooking, and uncovered 2nd half. The steam helps the chicken cook through before browning too fast and then uncovered crisps up the crust. Then of course we made country gravy with the grease and the bits. It takes some practice to get it the way you like it, so I would do a couple mini batches of drumsticks first.

@miller1978 this is the way my entire family has made fried chicken.. no milk, no buttermilk no egg.. just season chicken...roll in seasoned flour... and then roll in flour again.. never an issue with crustless chicken.

@miller1978 that's exactly how I was taught by my mother, it is always perfect. Takes me back.
