For cutting, ok to deep fry chicken in olive oil?

[Boost n Juice]

Without any breading of course...

I would have to go out on a limb and say NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Fried food and dieting don't mix bro...just bake it IMO.

[Panzerfaust]

Also some around here have stated that cooking Olive Oil kills the EFA's?

I am not up on that topic but seriously, just bake it.

[Cousin Eddie]

When unrefined oil is subjected to excessive heat it creates a distortion of the EFA molecules. Olive oil is damaged at 325 degrees F, making it a less than perfect choice for frying. It is often used for light sauteing or baking. You can safely take Coconut up to 375 degrees F, although I have no idea if saturated fat fits into your diet plan or not.

If you are using this as a fat/protein meal, technically it fits.

Gauging the correct ratios of fat to protein however by doing this, taking into account the fat in the chicken to begin with and how much is absorbed, make it a poor choice if you are trying to get as close as you can to a specific set of numbers.

I eat tons of this kind of chicken, seasoned w/chile, deep fried outside in a huge fryer, served w/tons of Mexican Food and beer, . When it's time to relax at my "Suegro's " house, it's time to do it right!

Swole.....you know that if you can keep the temp of the oil you fry with at 350 degrees the items you cook in it will absorb very little, if any, of the oil? Something about frying in less than that temp causes the food to absorb oil. **** it, now I'm going to have to find where I read that.

[SwoleCat]

That may be true, but would you want to "guess" on how much, and risk your hard work/physique?

Not I.

Can't argue with sound logic. I'm with you bro......I had heard something about it and thought I'd share. Now stay the hell out of my booze!

[AnabolicBoy1981]

too risky. plus oils get turned to trans fat at high heat. Ccoconut oil holds up a little better

They dont all turn to trans fats.
