Fried or "breaded" chicken is a popular Slovenian home-cooked dish, typically served with fries, potato salad, roasted or fried potatoes. You can fry all parts of the chicken, but the drumsticks and wings are especially considered a delicacy. Written sources from the 17th century indicate that fried drumsticks and wings were once a very popular dish in a famous Ljubljana inn, and workers (porters) particularly enjoyed them as a snack. And since žganci (a traditional Slovenian dish) was also a very common dish, often consumed by the poorer classes, fried chicken parts were nicknamed "flying žganci".
