So which one wins. This is a tough face-off for me. The crispy skin on a perfect roasted chicken is pretty magical when it is perfectly rendered and seasoned. (Fried chicken too of course)

And on a nice hearty fish like a salmon or trout fillet, you can also have a crispy crackly skin when you roast it or sear it. So which one do you prefer? The crispy fish or crispy chicken.

And if you haven't tried it: here is a great recipe for crispy fish skin.

Crispy fish skin?

Kind of....eww. Fish itself is wonderful, though.

Try a BLT made with crisped BBQ chicken skin instead of bacon - now that's good.

Actually, fish skin isn't very fishy. Less fishy than the fish. And less fishy than seaweed.

Sounds tasty!

A local restaurant here has chicken skin mayo! Ha. I don't like mayo though.

There was a mexican style seafood resturant [El Acapulco Seafood]that would leave about 1/4 of fish on the skin then fry like cracklins. they served as an appitizer with red chili sauce.

Where do I check off neither? I hate skin, whether it's on a fish or a chicken.

Crispy chicken skins.
They sell those by the bag down south. But they taste so gross.
