Archeological evidence shows that deep frying foods has a long history so it is not possible to pinpoint when exactly the first chicken was fried. During the medieval period fried chicken was known as pollo fritto in Italy so there is evidence it predated the colonization of North America by Europeans.

The style of fried chicken often called "Southern Fried Chicken" comes from the Southern United States where it is believed to have been brought to the region by Scottish immigrants and later improved on by African slaves and traditionally is a staple among both whites and blacks.
