About the dish

Pollo fritto alla Veneta is a traditional dish originating from Veneto. The dish is usually made with a combination of chicken, lemon juice, parsley, eggs, breadcrumbs, olive oil, sage, and salt. The chicken is marinated in a mixture of lemon juice, parsley, and salt. It's then dipped in beaten eggs and coated with breadcrumbs. The chicken is fried in oil until golden and fully cooked. Sage leaves are fried in the same pan, and they're used to garnish the chicken before serving. The dish is often served with lemon wedges and a fresh salad on the side.
