Analyzing cooking steps...
Drying the chicken thoroughly after brining is crucial for the batter to stick properly.
The addition of alcohol (whiskey) in the batter helps create a crispier texture by evaporating quickly during frying.
The cocoa adds a subtle depth and darkness to the crust's flavor without making it sweet.
