Frying chicken in olive oil takes about 25 to 30 minutes total, but the real answer is: it takes exactly as long as it takes to make you happy.
Because cooking isn’t about perfection—it’s about that moment when you bite into a crispy, juicy piece of chicken and think, “I made this. And it’s glorious.”
So crank up some music, pour yourself a glass of something nice, and trust the process. The oil will sizzle, the kitchen will smell like a hug from Italy, and you will emerge as the hero of dinner.
Go forth, fry with confidence, and remember: you are the captain of your skillet. Now make that chicken proud.
