Ingredients
Coat each piece: flour first, then water, then flour again. Really press and squish the flour into the chicken.
Fill your pot with oil and heat over high. Reach 360 degrees Fahrenheit before adding chicken. Be extremely careful with hot oil.
Ingredients
Carefully lower chicken into the oil using tongs. Don't overcrowd. Fry for about 12 minutes until golden brown.
Brush the chicken generously with the honey glaze. If it's hardened, warm it up. Be careful - the chicken is very hot.
