Breaded meat is a popular dish featuring cuts of chicken, pork, beef, or fish coated in seasoned breadcrumbs or flour before being fried, baked, or air-fried. Originating from European cuisines like schnitzel in Austria or Milanese in Italy, it has since been adapted worldwide. The breading typically includes a mixture of eggs, flour, and breadcrumbs, often spiced with herbs or seasoning for added flavor. This preparation method creates a crispy outer layer with juicy, tender meat inside. While breaded meat is high in protein, its nutritional value varies based on preparation. Frying can increase calorie and fat content, making it less ideal for heart health, while baking or air-frying provides a lighter option. Whole-grain breadcrumbs and lean cuts of meat can improve its health profile. Breaded meat is versatile but should be consumed in moderation, particularly when fried, due to added fats and sodium.
