The problem is while the meat may not be soaking up a lot of oil, the breading is. If you bread it, then fry it, you're adding crazy amounts of fat.

And while frying without breading may seal out the oil, it still seals in the meat's natural fats. Baking, broiling, or grilling will allow some fat content to drip out of the meat.

It's all relative. Frying is the most unhealthy way to cook meat.
