Fried chicken breast is a popular dish enjoyed worldwide, often associated with Southern American cuisine. Made from tender chicken breast, it is typically seasoned, dipped in batter or breading, and deep-fried until golden and crispy. The coating often includes flour, eggs, breadcrumbs, and spices, contributing to its savory flavor and crunchy texture. While chicken breast itself is a lean source of protein rich in essential nutrients like niacin, selenium, and vitamin B6, the frying process adds significant fat and calories. Additionally, the breading may contribute carbohydrates and sodium. Consuming fried chicken breast in moderation can be part of a balanced diet, but frequent consumption may lead to excessive calorie intake and higher cholesterol levels. Health-conscious alternatives include baking or air-frying the chicken to retain its protein benefits while reducing fat content.
