    both. butter will taste better and the oil will keep it from burning so quickly.

    oh and reg veg oil would be better.

    Your trying to poison your food?

    If thats the case,
    After you cook the chicken, you need to add some butter and get all the flavory goodness scrapped off the bottom of the pan, then i would saute up some garlic for a few seconds, add flour and seasoning. Create a roue, if you have any chciken stock, add maybe a cup of stock, or a boullion cube and some water. Bring to a slight boil, and let simmer for 2 minutes, stirring often

    Use olive oil, it's a healthier alternative than butter.
    Using butter to cook on a regular will take 5-7 off your life.

    Btw- Is it me, or does the OP title look like OT crooks?

    LOL. Sorry, just felt like playing doctor.

    It's most likely not true, but I can't see how eating butter on a regualr would be healthy for you. Probably does more harm to your body than good.
