Equipment

Ingredients
- 1 piece Chicken Already cooked and ready to reheat.
- 1 splash Water (A few drops to maintain moisture.)
- 1 cup Vegetable Oil (For frying, optional.)
Instructions
- Remove the chicken from its packaging and preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the chicken into an oven-safe dish, spritz lightly with water, and cover tightly with aluminum foil.
- Heat in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces.
- If frying, heat vegetable oil in a frying pan until sizzling, then carefully add the chicken.
- Fry for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown.
- For microwave reheating, cover with plastic wrap and heat for 1 minute, checking frequently.
- Let the chicken cool slightly, then serve hot.
Notes
- Tip 1: If you have more than one piece of chicken, spread it out in the reheating dish to allow heat circulation.
- Tip 2: Larger pieces of chicken will require longer heating times.
- Tip 3: A spritz of water helps steam the meat while keeping the skin crispy.
