Skillet’s fried chicken often appears as a main plate or part of brunch, with bone-in pieces or a boneless cut fried in a seasoned batter and served alongside sides like mashed potatoes, gravy, or a biscuit. The kitchen is known for giving classic comfort dishes a slightly modern twist, and here that translates to a well-developed seasoning blend and careful frying that keeps the chicken crisp yet not overly heavy. When you eat it, the dish feels both familiar and slightly elevated, with a balance of textures from crunchy crust to tender meat and rich accompaniments. A Seattle food guide notes Skillet as a longstanding spot that consistently serves good fried chicken as part of its broader American comfort menu.[14]
