Can you fry in this pan such as breaded chicken breast?

I think you can fry in this pan. I've mostly just cooked hamburgers in mine. Just make sure the chicken is well done in the center. The nice thing about the grill pan is that the meat doesn't lay in the oil and splatter everywhere. Good luck!!

Hi Angela,Yes you can fry in that pan. Thank you for allowing me to assist you. Kind regards, Audrey Consumer Relations

This is actually a grill pan. But I think you could put your chicken in the pan and it will get done. This is such a nice pan I lovei mine.

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 do not see why not. Just spray oil on the pan and fry them up. Try it with one or 2 cutlets to make sure before frying a full batch. Make sure it cooks inside and out.

You probably can if you don't choose a very large chicken and don't mind cleaning the oven afterwards...I have baked salmon in this little oven and it worked perfectly. Good luck!

I did chicken breast with no issue. Chicken is low in fat so there never really seems to be a problem. I sometimes run into issues when I am grinding hit fat content pork because the fat gets tangled in the blade and I have to stop and clear it out. I would still recommend this product though.

You probably could, because it's cast iron, but it's not designed for that, it might be too shallow, it does not have deep sides like a regular frying pan. This is more like a smallish serving plate that you can heat to scorching hot in the oven then place on the wooden base and then put your oil and onions or whatever else you want on there for a quick flash cook.

yes, i've done it a few times. don't put too much oil in and it will leave batter fragments at the bottom so pay attention. it cooks chicken fast.

You can, but just add your choice of cooking oil! I heat up the oil a little at first. Be careful to pat the potatoes dry before putting them in the pan with the oil so they won't splatter, and watch over them as you fry. I have the Presto Electric folding fryer, and I have fried breaded chicken cutlets in oil, and they come out moist and delicious. I have also made French fries very successfully. Good luck!

Be sure the pan is super hot before placing the steak in it. Also if frying chicken, etc, don't attempt to move pieces until they are browned or you may loosen the breading/coating. Once browned, it generally will release easily to move around the skillet.

I would think so. Mine gets very hot....hot enough to fry. I would suggest using a pan with a thick bottom so that the heat is more uniform.

Personally I would not...it is designed as a deep sauce and Fry Pan with quasi WOK capability. A Fry Daddy would be a better alternative. If you do Deep Fry it it heed the warning of not too high of heat setting. Certainly does a great job Frying Chicken and small batches of Fries but I don't think the intent is for Deep Frying large batches but that poses the question, "how deep?" If you are a party of one as myself certainly small Fry batches of Deep Fry are doable but it does have a handle so be careful. There are better alternatives for deep Frying IMO.

Never for burgers or chicken breast. Just precooked ham and chicken on paninis..Good luck

I have only tried chicken and I would say no it does not fry just as good. You have to be careful not to over cook and you can't really put too much meat in at once for the best results. It does taste fine though so it is worth buying.

Yes for burgers or thin chicken breasts. Tried a London broil and it didn't cook well. Had to slice it up and then cook again. Meat dried out. But I've done marinated chicken and burgers with no problem

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 .

Never used it for frying, just broiling.Since I wrote the review my unit quit working so I sent back,I believe at their expense.New unit also went out and I gave up.It cooks the best chicken that I have ever cooked and I loved it but it just clogged up the light socket I guess with the grease released.I feel like an addict because I still think about ordering another.It has to work longer for others but I had bad luck.

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

I am not sure. I have never tried to do that since I have a fry daddy. But I really love this skillet! I use it almost every day.

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.
