About Maryland chicken

Maryland Chicken is a dish rooted in American cuisine, inspired by the culinary traditions of the state of Maryland. Typically, it consists of pan-fried chicken coated in a seasoned breadcrumb or flour mixture, often served with a creamy milk-based gravy and sides like mashed potatoes or corn fritters. The chicken is tender on the inside and crispy on the outside, offering a rich and satisfying flavor profile. While chicken itself is a good source of lean protein, the frying process and creamy gravy can add extra calories, saturated fats, and sodium to the dish. Pairing it with healthier sides such as steamed vegetables or opting for oven-baked chicken instead of frying can enhance its nutritional value while preserving its signature taste. Maryland Chicken showcases a combination of comfort food and hearty flavors that reflect its regional origins.
