Boost Your Fried Chicken With An Unexpected Oil Swap

Fried chicken can be prepared using a variety of seasonings and methods. You can even use duck fat in place of the typical vegetable oil or lard for a boost of flavor.
Chefs affectionately refer to rendered duck fat as "liquid gold" due to its remarkable ability to enhance and deepen the flavor of any dish in which it's used.
Duck fat will make your fried chicken rich with a little bit of sweetness. However, duck fat cooking also guarantees a crispier, more golden crust, improving flavor as well as texture.
