About the dish

Pohani V is a specialty of the Croatian city of Virovitica. What makes it unique is the shape of the chicken breast – it should be cut so that it looks like the letter V, which is, not accidentally, the first letter in the name of its city of origin. Once shaped, the meat is seasoned, rolled in flour, dipped in eggs, milk, and breadcrumbs, then fried in hot oil. According to local tradition, this whimsical dish tastes the best when accompanied by sour cream or a combination of heavy cream and grated horseradish.
