You cannot.

No such thing as good home made fried chicken.

KFC purchase meat that is designed to be deep fried. The stuff you buy in retail outlets is literally supplemented with extra water to make it 'sizzle' in the pan - it can be up to 10% water in the UK. This destroys the frying properties. Causes the skin to pop and explode if you try to deep fry it. makes it taste like watered down meat because it literally is. In some parts of the world its up to 30% added water.

Garbage in garbage out. They call it plumping the meat.

If you try to deep fry chicken in the home. Don't. Simple as. If you try to coat and fry chicken in the pan it burns. Simple as.

Order KFC. pay the ferry man. Save yourself years of wasted effort man.

TLDR there are no good recipes.

Also what is that burnt shit in your picture OP - seriously!
