This recipe was maybe one of the worst written and vague recipes I've ever encountered. No mention of how long chicken needs to be in oil (saying until golden brown doesn't cut it) because I put exactly one piece of chicken in oil to fry and it took close to an entire hour to cook. And the batter all falls off and sticks to the bottom of the fryer. We then had to put ALL the chicken in the oven to finish cooking. Terrible- don't waste your time on this awful recipe.
