Can you fry chicken pieces in it?

Pan Frying OK. Deep Frying Absolutely NOT! It isn't deep enough. Think electric fyring pan. If you fry your chicken in a regular frying pan this will be OK. If you really want to submerge you chicken in hot oil then get an electric deep fryer.

Hi there, this is the second question I get directed to answer. I guess I'm becoming an expert in this :) Yes I've fried chicken in this pot (but more like in the form of stir fry with veggies). But just as a precaution, in my personal opinion I wouldn't do deep frying in this thing, why? because I personally use the pot in the center of my table, and if I do frying with lots of oil it's very likely that oil will sprinkle all over my table, table cloth, my small daughter, etc. So I try to keep frying with very little oil. Same applies when I do breakfasts (sunny side up eggs) I use very little oil. Hope this answers the question. Hi there, this is the second question I get directed to answer.

Yes . It works great for items that a meant to be fried but cooks with any need for oil and taste good.. I try this with French fries and taste great without the oil.. Works great on chicken, Pork chops, mozzarella sticks and chicken tenders.

You can never deep fry in a pressure cooker, if that's what you mean (it is a fire hazard). You can saute the chicken in oil first, but then you must still cook it with at least one cup of any liquid except oil, such as stock or wine.

Use PAM or a tablespoon of oil, heat pan on medium, and put in meat or whatever you wish to fry lightly. If you are frying chicken, for example, you will need to use about almost an inch or more of peanut oil (for high heat frying), preheat, and immerse coated chicken pieces in the oil. Always stand back from pan when you do this. As the previous comments wrote, this is not a non stick pan.

Yes it can. There are several recipes out there for using Carbquick for frying. Just google "Carbquick for frying".

Absolutely! Anything you fry in it, you have to apply your own judgment by checking in on the status from time to time. I fry everything with it, from fish to chicken, to turkey. Make sure you fry in the garage with the door open or outside besides the building. The smell is not fully filtered out.

if you only use oil and don't have much or any additional liquid to generate steam, I'd speculate this is unlikely to work. Plus the presence of large amounts of steam is unlikely to contribute in a good way to crunchy fried chicken.

It will fry anything, but you are better off frying chicken pieces with a large, deep skillet.

I never tried that, but I have made steaks in it and they turn out delicious. Chicken should fry really well in the Foreman pan.

Absolutely.Wok cooking, stir frying, or deep oil frying. Just rinse the oil off, wash it, and hang it to dry.

No. You have to know what your doing though. One mess up and you could fry it. My husband did it.

I never tried that. Can definitely be used for frying, but don't know how it works for deep frying

I have never fried chicken in this. I mainly use it for making dal( lentils), vegetables, chicken and mutton curry. I also use it to make rice, boil potatoes and other vegetables .

Don't have a measuring tape on me right now but you can easely fry half of a big chicken with fries or potatos all at once or four big whole wings or two big breasts and two big legs all with fries. It is big enough I would say.

Since it is a large deep fryer. I would have to believe that you can cook just about anything friable in this unit.My opinion only.....

Unfortunately you can't. It has one heating element In the bottom. Says on box "Handy divider keeps food separated when frying two foods at once" & "The divider removes for frying larger pieces of chicken or fish and for easy cleaning". Hope this helps. My mom loves it for the size and the amount she can fry at once compared to the Fry Daddy. She loves to fry chicken In it. Will continue to buy as long as It Is available.
