Cooking Advice:
For a crispier texture, consider double-coating the chicken breasts in flour before frying. Using a lighter oil, such as vegetable or canola oil, ensures a healthier frying process. Be mindful of portion sizes, especially when frying, as oil can contribute to higher fat content.
This protein-packed, crispy fried chicken breast is perfect as a stand-alone meal or as a topping for salads, sandwiches, or wraps. Its impressive protein content supports muscle growth and repair, making it an excellent choice for athletes and those focused on maintaining an active lifestyle.
