“I think that frying chicken is what God made cast iron skillets for. Also, if you are frying a lot of chicken, you can dip the chicken for frying, place on a large sheet pan and refrigerate overnight to fry the next day. If you are really in a hurry, have two skillets going at one time. But you must be sure the chicken fries long enough to cook through and don't crowd the pieces.” - Mary
