Is breaded chicken healthy? 🍗

[Cookie2122]

Hi all! I’m wondering if breaded chicken is considered healthy. I know it’s delicious, but I’m trying to watch my diet. Any tips on making a healthier version? Thanks!

You can make it healthier! Try baking or air frying instead of frying, and use whole wheat breadcrumbs or nuts for a better crunch. Season well, and you’ll have a tasty, lighter version!

Breaded chicken isn't that healthy since it is often high in calories and fat. To make it healthier, I suggest you use almond flour or crushed nuts instead of traditional breadcrumbs. Also, consider dipping the chicken in egg whites or Greek yogurt instead of whole eggs.
