The three healthiest oils generally speaking are olive oil, canola oil and peanut oil. Olive oil isn't really appropriate for fried chicken, it has a lower burning point than other oils, meaning it burns at lower tempertures, and it had a heavier, more distinctive taste that might swamp your fried chicken. Either canola oil or peanut oil should work great, canola oil is generally less expensive of the two and considered the healthiest, but peanut oil is often recommended because of the flavor it gives fried foods. Answer2: I actually read that coconut oil is the best for frying and olive and avocado oil are excellent choices as well.
Refined soybean and peanut oil have about the same smoke point temperature of 450-460°F or 232-238°C, which mean they can be mixed safely with the risk of lowering the smoke point temperature. Unrefined oil should not be used for frying, as all the particulates considerably lower the smoke point temperature.
