This expression became a term of encouragement after the following exchange in a live New York local Fox News broadcast at the end of the weather report.
Ernie: "It takes a tough man to make a tender forecast, Nick."
Nick Gregory: "Well, I guess that's me!"
Ernie: "Keep fucking that chicken."
The first line is a parody of a commercial for Perdue chicken from the 1970's, in which Frank Perdue uttered the tag line, "It takes a tough man to make a tender chicken." "Keep fucking that chicken" was the punchline of a joke of the same time about how Perdue did it.
Way to go, buddy. Keep fucking that chicken!

"Keep fucking that chicken" (KFTC) is a phrase coined by television anchor Ernie Anastos during a live broadcast of the Fox 5 New York local news. It is presumably a phrase of encouragement similar to keep on truckin, only with a more pronounced and colorful air of defiance.
The chicken being fucked may be an actual chicken, could be pejorative slang for a woman (i.e. chickenhead), or some other metaphor for an object of desire or enjoyable activity. In any case, KFTC seems to be a gesture of support to the recipient to continue doing whatever it is that they're doing, despite what others may say, so long as it makes them happy.

Encouraging someone to give you good results again.
Based on newscaster Ernie Anastos cursing to the weatherman Nick Gregory, after Gregory gives his weather forecast on 9/16/09. Anastos, in some playful banter to Gregory, said, "It takes a tough man to make a tender forecast, Nick." Gregory responded, "I guess that's me." Anastos then said, "Keep fucking that chicken."
Sharon: Here's that report you wanted, sir. I managed to find a way to save the company $1 million dollars.

A sarcastic statement made to humorously disparage a person's efforts.
Based on newscaster Ernie Anastos cursing to the weatherman Nick Gregory, after Gregory gives his idiotic weather forecast on 9/16/09. Anastos, in some mocking banter to Gregory, said, "It takes a tough man to make a tender forecast, Nick." Gregory responded, "I guess that's me?". Anastos bitingly, and hilariously, adds "Keep fucking that chicken!"
After the president pledged to spend billions of dollars to prevent encrypted communications, a voice was heard from the back of the press room: "Keep fucking that chicken, Obama!"
