Note

For extra crispiness, let the floured chicken rest for 10 minutes before frying.

Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature; too hot will burn the outside before the inside cooks, too cool will make the chicken greasy.

Substitute fetta cheese with feta or goat cheese if preferred.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in an oven to maintain crispiness.

Use bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces for best results, adjusting cooking time as necessary for larger cuts.
