I'm new to cooking and what not. Now if I were to cook my chicken breast (or other meats) in Olive oil, is that considered frying? What would be considered frying? I know it's probably a silly question, but I thought I'd ask. Thanks!

Hi Athena,


It doesn't matter if you call it sauteeing or frying, if you're cooking your foods with olive oil or canola oil, you're doing fine!
