Medium High Heat

Six on my range top is very hot, I actually start out on four and wait . I put a wooden spoon in the oil, when it begins to have bubbles around it, I add the food. If the bubbles are running fast and furious I lower it... You only want a high heat when you have breaded chicken boneless very thinly cut so it sears quick on both sides to hold in the juices . I think you should adjust by starting out low and warm it up start on four, raise it accordingly. these things can be tricky.
