can I deep fry


ultra quest

Recommended Posts

Many have written that coconut oil is allowed on the whole 30. I was wondering if it's OK to deep fry (ie deep fry chicken covered in coconut flour) to make southern fried chicken. Ingredients wise I know it's fine, but is that against the spirit of the whole 30 (ie like using coconut flour to make pasteries which is frowned upon)? I ask since deep frying is normally considered very unhealthy.

I would add that I'd limit how often I do this. While it might be compliant (and I've absolutely fried sweet potato fries and chips in coconut oil) most oils are damaged at high prolonged heats, even those that are more stable. You can do a more shallow quick pan fry to crisp and brown and then toss in the oven to finish as an alternative.
