A wide variety of fried chicken dishes are prepared in regions around the world. From lesser-known traditional delicacies to staple snacks famous in multiple countries, exploring these dishes can be a fascinating exercise. Taste Atlas, the popular food and travel guide, has even curated a list of the 'Best Fried Chicken Dishes' across the globe. It recently updated the same as per its ranking data for December 2024.

Taste Atlas describes this dish as a "deep-fried chicken that is marinated in ginger, lemon, red chiles, and a variety of other spices." It also explains that there are several theories about its invention, clarifying that the most "popular" one traces Chicken 65's origin to Tamil Nadu in the 1960s. This is not the first time this Indian dish has received recognition on a global scale. When Taste Atlas released the list on the same theme last year (in August 2023), it ranked Chicken 65 tenth overall. Check out the complete recipe for it here.
