This is exactly what I do. I used to fry chicken at least once a week when
I worked but of course it was for many folks and we had big deep fryers that
made it idiot proof. I don't fry much in the house at all (maybe once a
year or so) but I got a bee under my bonnet last year and decided to make
some chicken. It turned out beautifully, it was good but damn, I had grease
from one side of the friggin' kitchen to the other. After it was over and I
was cleaning I told my hub to remind me that we have a friend who owns the
Popeye's franchise and it's good, close and my kitchen stays clean. I just
don't need to fry chicken w/out a commercial kitchen anymore.
