(If the batter seems too thick, add a little cold water, no more than 1 tablespoon at a time, until the batter becomes the consistency of pancake batter.) Place half the chicken pieces in the batter and turn to coat. Remove the chicken from the batter, allowing any excess to drip back into the bowl, and carefully transfer it to the oil. Fry the chicken, adjusting the heat as necessary to maintain the oil temperature between 300°F and 325°F (149°C and 163°C).

Place the fried chicken on the wire rack to drain. Bring the oil back to 350°F (176°C) and repeat with the remaining chicken.
