Any idea on how to stop flour or breading from coming off and ruining the oil when frying chicken?
I try shaking off the excess flour, but that doesn't seem to help much.
you bread it and let it sit for about 15-20 minutes ya dingus
you don't bread it shake it off then fry

what are you, poor? throw it out after the first fry.
Do you like extra crispy OP? Do the above, but then dip and flour a second time and let it sit again. Amazing results.

If you do it twice with only one egg wash you're wasting your time.

Oil not hot enough. Or just cook the chicken first then coat and shallow fry.
freeze before frying if you have the time.

this, OP. If you let it sit, it moisturizes all the breading with the chicken juices or whatever and it's not just a dry powder on the outside.

Strain the oil through several layers of cheese cloth to get rid of any bits of breading that contaminate it.

salt the chicken and put in fridge for a few hours
flour the chicken thoroughly first, no wet bits should remain
make sure oil is 350 use a thermometer
when ready to put in oil put in egg then coat in flour
