Do you need a special pan/frier to do it or can you fry chicken on the stove? I'm really after crispy fried chicken. Do any of you have a recipe to share?

Thanks.

Oh, yes, I have just such a recipe. I don't have time to post it right now, but it only requires an oven, is delicious, low carb, and quite crispy

OK, that link was the mother of all lists of recipes. I could have spent HOURS there.

Here is the one I am going to try:

Crispy Baked Chicken
Ingredients

4 large chicken breasts, bone and skin still intact, cut in half
1/4 C heavy whipping cream
1/4 C water
1-3 oz bag of plain pork rinds finely ground
1/2 C grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic salt
3-4 T melted butter

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Mix the cream and the water together. In a shallow bowl, plate, or in a bag, mix the pork rinds, cheese, seasoning, and salt. Dip the chicken in the cream mixture and then coat with the "breading". Place chicken on a rack in a roasting pan (sprayed with nonstick spray). Drizzle the melted butter over the chicken. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes.

This recipe is easy, and the chicken turns out crispy and delicious.
