The short answer: Only some KFC restaurants are halal certified. KFC Australia's FAQ lists 31 certified restaurants in New South Wales, Victoria and the ACT. The chicken supplied to those certified restaurants is Halal, and each one displays a Halal Certificate listing the halal suitable menu items.
