Can you batter chicken, fish, etc. or do you have to use food already pre battered/frozen? How about your own fries? Not frozen fries?

I have never used my turbo oven to cook these items, however I see no difference between pre battered vs own battered

Yes. You can. One of the nicest features about using a Halo Oven. No need to defrost first. I do it all the time with chicken, meat and fish. :)

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.

Dry foods that come as frozen: for example I spray my frozen french fries with butter and add some salt, and they come out to taste great! I love eating raw broccoli and spray it with some olive oil :) Kids frozen nuggets are to oily so I just placed them like that

H$-ll YES!!! Convenient,easy to use,and DID WHAT IT SAYS IT WILL!!! French fries come out perfectly EVERY TIME!!! The trick is to cut the fries,put them in cold oil,heat the oil with the french fries in it,take fries out after a 10 minute pre-cook, let fries stand for about 2 minutes, THEN put fries back in to complete cooking. I guarantee the fries, if cooked this way, will be the best you have EVER made yourself!!! Enjoy!!! :-)

Yes! I have fried zucchini, to try it out, and it was fabulous! This is definitely worthy product, I am glad I chose this one, diamond in the rough. The recipes include crispy coating, beer batter, milk batter, quesadilla crispers, apple pie fritter, and jalapeno kickers. I have not tried them all, but I plan to. I use it mostly for French fries and it also takes a little less than 48 oz of cooking oil. Good luck, I don't think you will regret it.

There is no cooking time shown for frozen meat. You can do vegetables and seafood from frozen per the instructions.

I have had mine for a couple of months. Grills sandwiches, veggies and fish nicely. I would not grill a frozen chicken breast.

It really fries all meats without a single drop of oil. Chicken, shrimps, beefs, french fries, etc. The only downside is that is small and cleaning, but if you have a dish washer won't be an issue.

I don't know yet about fried chicken - I only made chicken marsala with it. It was yummy according to my husband!

Makes great fries, fried chicken and chickenfried steak. I don't know about donuts, but I don't see why not.

It's a food processor, so no to the fries. However you could do potato chip slices or wavy.

Definitely, I always remove the basket to fry chicken parts, onion rings, hash brown patties and fried green tomatoes. Wonderful fryer, best I've had and believe me I've had all the FAMOUS CHEF Ones and they can't hold a candle to this one.

I haven't tried frozen food, but I did put a leftover cooked steak wrapped in foil and it heated nicely in an hour or so. no mess to clean up. I will have to try a frozen dinner if it will fit. It's only about 5 inches in diameter inside to cook. I'm also going to try vegetables (sliced potato, zuchinni, carrots, onions, peppers seasoned and wrapped in aluminum foil to see how long they would take to cook. To be honest, I think it more for warming up foods than anything, but it's worth a try.

Forgot to mention, be careful with the time you use when cooking anything. It may sound like not enough (from the booklet) but it usually is just right. If you let something stay in a little longer it will be crispier. I had a chicken in there and let it stay a bit more and it was alomost a total buffalo wing but still not dried out.

cucumber, yes. Cooked chicken breast, yes. A LARGE potato, I doubt it, but maybe a medium potato. But then again, how large is a large? I know a cuke and a chicken breast would go into it.
