I understand the appreciation for salt and pepper chicken, but I gotta have a bunch of FLAVOR on mine and so long as the spices/rub doesn’t contain sugar or at least not high amounts, it won’t burn. It may char, but that is welcome in my book.
Restaurant Quality…. I hope not. Most restaurants are horrible… they just give you some convenience food warmed in a combi cooker. I can do much better than most restaurants 😀
Just made this and it was delicious. TY <3
You do nothing and talk too much stop ít please
I don't use that oil. I use avacado oil. Its much healthier for you. And it has a high smoke point.
Shocked to see you using "vegetable" oil. Devastating for the human body.
Step 1: use a thigh.
What and where can I find the recipe for this?
Use Avocado oil. Vegetable oil is bad for your body.
Guilty
we cookin different chicken bro
Challenging grandma. I lost him when he called putting salt seasoning.
Hi there and thank you for the video.
Isn't the chicken at the end totally cold?
This was so helpful! Thank you
Use clarified butter instead of oil.
Bro this guy knows his stuff, he should try cooking for a profession
I still don't understand the "Restaurant Quality"
My gradma's chicken was the best in the world. I wager a lot better than yours! Stop insulting Grandmas dude.
Agree, minus the vegetable oil
A smile grew up on my face towards the end. I can do this. Thank you.
What is a “neutral oil”?
When we season it with salt and pepper, then we flip the chicken, do people wash their hand before seasoning it the other side? I don’t like the feeling of raw meat on my pepper grinder so I always wash my hand in between, but I never see anyone do it in any VDO.
