  1. Cube up the chicken.
  2. Place it into a plastic bag and add the pickle juice; marinate in the fridge for 1-3 hours.
  3. After marinating, open the bag and pour out any excess pickle juice.
  4. In a separate bowl mix together the egg and the heavy cream and add the mixture to the bag. Let sit for five minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl mix together all the dry ingredients.
  6. Again, open the bag and pour out the excess liquid. No need to fully drain, just discard any extra liquid.

  8. Heat your fry pan and add the oil and fat.
  9. Fry your chicken pieces in batches. About two minutes per side until golden brown.
  10. Remove each batch to a paper towel to remove excess oil and then place on a baking sheet in the oven set at 170 degrees to keep them warm.
