Deep frying chicken legs typically takes about 12 to 15 minutes at an oil temperature of around 350°F (175°C) to 375°F (190°C). The chicken legs should be fried until they are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), ensuring they are fully cooked. It's common to turn the chicken legs halfway through the cooking time for even frying. After frying, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving for the best texture and juiciness.
