Love fried chicken but usually make the oven fried version since I've never been good at frying chicken in oil.  I do have a cast iron skillet and should give it a try again.  I have a question for you ladies regarding adding butter to the oil.  Doesn't the butter burn when frying at a high temperature?  Just curious.

You never fry chicken at high temps. Different pieces get done before some other pieces. I'm talking about frying a whole chicken.

White meat will cook faster then legs and thighs.

High temps will just burn and be raw on inside.

I never cared for Popeyes although it was very popular when I lived in Houston. It was too greasy forme.  I've always been a fan of KFC original if I have to eat fast food chicken.  My favorite meal, which I always requested, was cold fried chicken, mother's potato salad and black olives, then birthday cake.

@Kachina624  I love those great big canned sort of bland black olives eaten with a PBJ sandwich.

We reheated the leftover chicken today in the air fryer and it worked great!

I can't help it!  I LOVE fried chicken but hardly ever have it.  I especially love Popeye's Spicy fried chicken!  Any other Popepye's lovers out there?

Please feel free to respond with positive or negative views, rants about grease or whatever!

I used to eat Popeye’s Fried Chicken 3 x week until I looked up how much fat and salt it contained.   I came down with IBS, with severe and uncontrollable diarrhea from eating too much Popeye’s chicken.  I cook my own chicken now , but not fried, to control the fat and salt intake.

But, admit I do miss Popeye’s.  I just don’t want to die early from a heart attack, clogged arteries due to fat, or die from a stroke due to high blood pressure.

Enjoy your Popeye’s Fried Chicken.

BTW, how many pieces do you order for yourself, and what are your favorite sides?

@EatWell  I like a wing and all or part of a breast and I don't care for any of their sides.   Just the chicken.
