Chicken Katsu is a popular Japanese dish consisting of a breaded and deep-fried chicken cutlet. The chicken is typically coated in flour, egg, and panko breadcrumbs before frying, resulting in a crispy exterior and tender, juicy meat inside. Often served with steamed rice, shredded cabbage, and a savory-sweet tonkatsu sauce, it offers a satisfying balance of flavors and textures. While Chicken Katsu is rich in protein from the chicken, the frying process adds significant fat and calories. Using lean chicken cuts and preparing it with baking or air-frying methods can make it a healthier option. It is part of Japanese Western-inspired cuisine called “yoshoku,” blending traditional techniques with international influence. Although not inherently nutritious due to its high fat content, pairing it with fresh vegetables and moderate portions can make it a more balanced meal.
