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).

Liberally coat chicken pieces with Creole seasoning.

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.
