I fry chicken much like old dog. I soak mine in buttermilk and drain it well before dipping in seasoned flour. I put it on a rack and let the buttermilk absorb the flour and I go through the flour again on the way to the frying pan.
I use a deep cast iron chicken fryer and add enough oil to come half way up the chicken. The biggest problem, and the one that sometimes gets me, is in maintaining the right temperature. I have an electric stove and that's not the best thing to fry chicken on IMO.
I have been using the NuWave induction cooktop-it gets hot enough to do a good job. Works well with cast iron.
