How to cook deliciously - Easy Creole Fried Chicken

1. Stage

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

2. Stage

Liberally coat chicken pieces with Creole seasoning.

3. Stage

Place 6 to 7 pieces chicken at a time into the hot oil. Cook until skin turns light brown and pieces float, 9 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and drain on paper towels before transferring to a baking sheet. Repeat to fry remaining batches.

4. Stage

Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Cool for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
