Skillet-Fried Chicken is a classic comfort food rooted in Southern cuisine, offering a flavorful and crispy outer coating paired with juicy, tender meat. Typically prepared by dredging chicken pieces in seasoned flour or a buttermilk-based batter, it is then fried in a skillet with oil, often enriched with spices like paprika, garlic powder, and pepper for added depth. While rich in protein, the frying process adds significant fat due to oil absorption, making it higher in calories. Traditionally served with sides like mashed potatoes and greens, skillet-fried chicken is beloved for its satisfying texture and bold flavor. To make a healthier version, alternatives such as air-frying or oven-baking can reduce added fat while maintaining the signature crunch. Additionally, using whole-grain coating or reducing sodium in seasoning can enhance its nutritional profile without sacrificing taste.
