Of course u can just do not use metal utensils. I have fried chicken in it multiple times works great

Depends on how deep your oil is. I'm a shallow-fryer; meaning I only use about a 1/4 inch of oil to fry my breaded chicken. If you're a deep-fryer, you might want to look for something with higher sides.

This frying pan is a no fry pan. You can however bake the chicken in it as long as you do it on the grill.

My experience with this unit, so far, is that it does not maintain a temperature high enough to fry chicken. I try to keep the frying temperature at a minimum of 320 degrees, after the chicken is placed in the pan. I've only tried this a couple of times with drum sticks and thighs and both times the temperature fell below 300 degrees. I plan to try it again with wings or other smaller pieces and limiting the number of pieces being fried at one time. It's a nice spacious pan and perhaps I put too many pieces in at one time. Ron...

Yes, anything you cook in a deep fryer can be cooked in this. That is what I have found.

It's a fry pan. You need to have some kind of fat to fry in. This is not non-stick. I love this pan and use it all the time.

The instructions warn you not to fry anything in this pot. I typically take warning labels as a challenge, however, and proceeded to fry a turkey in it without any problems. I think wings would be fine. Just make sure your oil isn't getting too hot and the chicken is dry before you drop it in and you should be fine.

You could if you cut it into smaller chunks. I keep a small jar of coconut oil inside if mine for frying. It works well. You could use a lightweight, small-diameter pan with this, but it pretty much comes with one (the "lid"). I love this cookset. Also, if you replace the plastic feet with bolts it can be used with wood. Fuel as well. This essentially makes it I tri-fuel system.

No, definitely not. Two chicken breasts or four thighs would work, or an intact fryer, but not a whole cut up chicken

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

The pan is pretty deep, so I don't see why not. I've done some pan frying but no deep frying in mine.

I doubt it, however the recipe book that comes with it has Vanilla souffle; Chicken tenders (breadcrumb) and Croquettes. The point is these dishes that need flour required premix of oil with the coating prior to air fry. I tried the croquettes and it was kind of dry. The only way is to dip the croquette in oil or brush it heavily with oil to make it crispy. Anything with flour coating seems a challenge here. I am very happy with fried chickens (no coating) as the skins are always crispy!

I would not use it for frying as the hot oil expands and there is not high enough sides, also the non stick coating can not take such high heat. Use your dutch oven to fry.

Yes you can but frankly I don't know why you would want to. The reason is the pan gets coated with hot beer and chicken juices that I am almost sure you will want to clean it by hand. It works great and I really like using it.

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.

You definitely can but if you mean whole chicken, and depending on the size of the bird I would prefer a roaster pan or one deep enough to catch the juice and grease.

I love this skillet. Yes, it would be great for frying chicken. I use it most every day. I have a gas stove and it pretty much covers two burners. I make Pad Thai, fried rice, and homemade corn tacos. It will hold 4 corn tortillas with ease.

Absolutely. I fry chicken, fish, chicken fried steak, and I make French fries in it. I also use in on a lower temp to make meatloaf, chicken and rice, and beef and noodles. (Now I'm hungry).
