Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use boneless chicken for this recipe?
Yes, you can use boneless chicken, but keep in mind that the cooking time may be reduced. Boneless thighs or breasts will cook faster, so check for doneness after about 25-30 minutes of simmering to ensure they remain juicy.
What should I do if the chicken isn't browning properly?
If the chicken isn't browning, make sure your skillet is hot enough before adding the chicken. You can also try reducing the amount of shortening to prevent it from becoming too greasy, which can hinder browning. Consider cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Can I freeze the leftovers?
Yes, you can freeze the leftover Glory Fried Chicken. Make sure it’s completely cooled, then store it in a freezer-safe container or bag for up to three months. When ready to enjoy, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat gently in the oven.
