4. 2. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss them to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours (overnight marination is even better) to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

19. 7. Fry the chicken pieces for about 5-6 minutes per batch, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. You can cut a piece open to ensure it's fully cooked.
