Cooking tips

  • Chicken thigh meat contains a lot of fat and can spoil easily, so use it immediately after purchasing. If there's no stickiness or off-putting smell, it's more hygienic not to wash it with water.
  • To save oil, it's essential to use the smallest frying pan. This ensures that even a small amount of oil creates enough depth for the chicken to be fully submerged and fry properly.
  • When removing the fried chicken, placing it directly on paper towels traps moisture and makes it soggy. Always drain the oil on a wire rack to maintain crispiness for longer.
  • Leftover oil can be reused 2-3 more times if filtered to remove fried bits and stored in an airtight container in the freezer.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to fry crispy chicken at home without the hassle of oil disposal and cleanup.
  • Those who want to enjoy clean fried chicken without greasiness, served with a sweet and sour pickled onion sauce.
  • Those who want to make a practical one-bowl meal using minimal ingredients and small tools.
