I got a good deal on some cold fried chicken at the grocery
store yesterday, but don't know how to reheat it. How do you
reheat fried chicken?

TIA

No microwave - the outside will be soggy. Let it come to
room temp then put on foil on a cookie pan in a 450 oven for
5 min or so. This is the only way I know to retain some of
the original crispiness of the skin.

Warm it up in the oven, maybe at 350 or less. You could nuke
it in the microwave. I have no idea how long to leave it. I
love cold fried chicken.

Leave it in the picnic basket sitting in the sun while you
go play softball or swim in the lake.

To quote my native coworkers when I lived in the South:

"You eat it cold, the way God intended. Preferably with a
side of potato salad and some corn bread."

A lot of people eat it cold -- a classic picnic food. I
don't like cold fried chicken, so I usually reheat it in
some creamy gravy with lots of pepper.

Best way to reheat is slowly in a hot oven. Put the chicken
pieces on a baking rack and heat at about 375F for 30
minutes or so, until heated through. This will retain the
crispiness of the fried coating. Nuking will result in soft
soggy but warm chicken.

Hark! I heard monarch@airmail.net say:

> How do you reheat fried chicken?

I bake mine at 325 degrees until it starts to make "frying"
noises (about 15 minutes). That keeps the crust crunchy...

Heat it in your microwave over on defrost. That way you
don't cook it, just warm it. I own a Chester Chicken
operation and always have chicken in the fridge. Bill
