# Calories when Frying?
Hi All! I posted this in the kitchen section... and no one seems to have any anwers so I'll post it here ... to see if you-all can help me.
I was wondering if anyone knew how to calculate the additional calories when using a deep fryer?
I got one as a present that using 3 cups of oil - if I put a 4oz. skinless chicken breast in the fryer - how do i figure out how much oil actually is asborbed by the chicken?
4 oz. of chicken = about 150 calories...
frying = ?
it's been suggested to me to measure the amount of oil missing from the fryer... but doesn't some of it burn off too?
Thanks! viv
