Is Frying Food in Olive Oil Good for You
So, is frying food in olive oil good for you? It’s better than frying in most other oils. It’s not a health food, but it’s not a health hazard either—as long as you don’t turn your kitchen into a smoke-filled disaster zone.
My advice? Use good-quality olive oil, keep the heat medium, and don’t fry everything you see. And if you’re really worried, sauté instead—same flavor, less guilt. Now go make that chicken, you hungry genius.
P.S. – If you’re still paranoid, just remember: the food you fry in olive oil will still be way healthier than that bag of chips you’re craving. So fry on, my friend. Fry on.
